Figure 2

Depth profiles (0–90 cm) of soil carbon (a) and pH (c) in Western Australian agricultural soils collected from trial sites where soil pH (−lime versus +lime) or soil organic matter (−OM versus +OM) had been historically altered and the correlation of soil carbon and pH with bacterial and archaeal amoA gene abundance (b and d). Error bars represent ± 1 SE. Trendlines show a log-linear fit (all regressions significant at P < 0.001). Soil pH was determined in a 1:5 (w/w) soil suspension in 0.01 M CaCl2. Note: gene copy numbers are plotted on a log10 scale.
