Distribution of abiontic carboxymethylcellulase in relation to microbial growth and activity in forest soils
산림토양내 carboxymethylcellulase의 분포와 미생물의 생장 및 활성과의 상관에 대하여
Abstract
Seasonal and vertical variations of abiontic soil carboxymethylcellulase (CMCase) activities were assessed every other month for a year in two contrasting forest soils and evaluated the relationships between soil CMCase activity and environmental parameters. In climax deciduous soil, variations in CMCase activities caused by differences in sampling time were greater than those caused by differences in soil depth. On the other hand, counter phenomenon was obserned in coniferous soil at the stage of development. Correlation analyses showed that soil CMCase activities were significantly (p>0.01) correlated with microbial respiration rates (
