Evaluation of the microbial viability of soil samples from maize crops in freeze-storage under different management conditions in a semi-arid climate

The effect of freeze-storage on culturable soil microorganism viability was determined for soil samples from three agricultural maize crop systems (under conventional management, direct seeding, and direct seeding with a cover crop). Most culturable soil bacteria were unaffected by the freeze-thaw s...
