Summary

Climate change causes droughts, which in turn cause significant physiological stress for soil microorganisms. In this study, we investigated how the abundance of total bacterial, crenarchaeal and fungal communities and the abundance of N-cycling microbial guilds responded to a severe agricultural drought event in a long-term experiment of minimum tillage (MT) and conventional ploughing (CT) at two soil depths.
This study was financially supported by the European Commission within the EcoFINDERS project (FP7-264465), CORE Organic Plus funding bodies within the FertilCrop project, and by the Slovenian Research Agency within the programme P4-0085.
