The current study evaluated how the biomass of crops varying in C: N contribute to CH4 cycling in a tropical vertisol. Soil was amended with the biomass of wheat, maize, soybean and chickpea at 1% w/w. Soils were incubated at 100% moisture holding capacity and 60% of field moisture capacity. The former condition was to facilitate methanogenesis and other for CH4 consumption. After incubation, soils were analyzed for organic carbon, available nitrate, abundances of methanogens and methanotrophs. Study highlighted that crop biomass incorporation into soil stimulated CH4 cycling processes includi...
