Abstract
Root extracts of six climax species of grasses and eight species of grasses or forbs that increase on or invade overgrazed land were bioassayed for the presence of substances which inhibit nitrifying bacteria. Inhibitors were detected in root extracts of grasses and forbs that commonly increase on or invade overgrazed grasslands.Keywords
