Effect of Anaerobic Soil Disinfestation on Salmonella Concentration Using Different Soil Amendments
Salmonella has been shown to survive in soils for extended periods. Anaerobic soil disinfestation (ASD) represents a promising alternative to fumigation used to manage soilborne diseases and pests; however, little is known about ASD's impact on Salmonella. The study aimed to compare Salmonella …
