Interesting paper on the effect of CA practices and especially tillage (with and without), residue management (burned, incorporated or surface mulch) and fertilizer (with or without) on tilled or permanent beds (PB) on the soil microbial community in a long term maize-wheat experiment in NW Mexico. The soil organic carbon was highest in the PB, residue retained treatment and loweest in the burned and tilled plots. Bacterial communities were affected by tillage-residue, fertilizer and soil organic carbon. The paper has data on how the different bacterial communities were affected.
