The effect of tobacco dust and composts containing those wastes on soil fungi was determined. It was found that crude tobacco dust, as opposed to composts, acted selectively making the species composition of soil fungal populations poor and changing the interrelations of potentially antagonistic and phytopathogenic fungi.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
