“…Soil microbial communities can secrete extracellular enzymes that take part in numerous soil processes (Brzostek et al, 2013). Among these enzymes, hydrolases are involved in C (e.g., β-glucosidases), N (e.g., β-1,4-N-acetylglucosaminidase and leucine aminopeptidase), and P (e.g., alkaline phosphatases) cycling and thus widely investigated in previous studies (Martinez and Tabatabai 1997;Roberts et al, 2007;Zhao et al, 2016;Li et al, 2019;Thapa et al, 2021). The activities of these enzymes can quickly respond to changes in microbial communities and environmental conditions, and are, therefore, considered as sensitive indicators of microbial dynamics and environmental changes (Bowles et al, 2014).…”

“…and soil mineralizable N with the combined application of conventional tillage and no-tillage with crop residue incorporation condition (Pandey et al, 2014;Thapa et al, 2021). Rhizosphere is an important place for soil microbial activities; therefore, the rhizosphere soil N mineralization and its enzyme activities were usually regarded as important indicators for maintaining or increasing soil quality and fertility, which affect growth and crop yield (Jiang et al, 2021).…”

“…Cool-season grass species including barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), oat (Avena sativa L.), and spring triticale (×Triticosecale Wittm.) are commonly planted as single species or in mixtures with spring pea, radish (Raphanus sativus L.), rapeseed [Brassica napus L.]), safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.), and sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) in the spring or early summer across the region (Calderon et al, 2016;Ghimire et al, 2019;Holman et al, 2018;Kelly et al, 2021;Liebig et al, 2015;Thapa et al, 2021). Summer CCs are usually warm-season grasses and broadleaves including sorghum-sudangrass (Sorghum × sudanense (Piper) Stapf), pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.), cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L), sunflower, and sun hemp (Crotalaria juncea L.) (Sanderson et al, 2018).…”

“…It is possible that weed emergence patterns and species dominance could shift with CC integration. Improvement in soil biological communities with CCs (Table 2; Calderon et al, 2016;Thapa et al, 2021), could also result in seed predation and weed suppression. Both scenarios can reduce the weed seedbank.…”
