This study aimed to determine the dynamics of carbon and glucosidase enzyme activity in the topsoil and subsoil of monoculture land. This research was in Nagari Alahan Panjang, West Sumatra. Soil samples were taken using a purposive random sampling method on three cropping patterns: monoculture, rotation and intercropping, and two depths of 0-15 cm and 15-30 cm. The parameters analyzed included total N, organic C, exchangeable K, Ca, Mg, and Na, glucosidase, biomass C, and respiration. Data from observations were analyzed with Pearson statistics 8 correlation. The results showed that β-glucosidase activity was positively correlated with total N and organic C, biomass C was positively correlated with exchangeable Mg, and respiration was positively correlated with N total and β-glucosidase.
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.
