Abstract
  • To improve our understanding of the abundance and diversity of bacterial microbes in garden soils, we collected soil samples from 40 gardens across Central Oregon and the Willamette Valley. We included gardens with different management practices and, within a garden, we sampled soil from beds with different crops. We found that the most abundant soil bacterial microbes tended to be remarkably consistent across garden sites, compared to less common and rare microbes, which varied across sites. Here, we explore the identities of the most common bacteria we found in Oregon garden soils.
  • In cooperation with 10-Minute University, and funded by the Clackamas County Master Gardener Association, these briefs will help you translate research findings into sustainable gardening practices.
