Data of a greenhouse rhizotron experiment with sample no., rhizotron (1-8), treatment (without straw and with straw), time (days), sample id (sid, B=bulk soil, R=rhizosphere soil, followed by sampling depth range in cm), H2O (%dm), pH (in CaCl2), DOC (dissolved organic carbon), DN (dissolved nitrogen), NO3 (nitrate), NH4 (ammonium), P (in CaCl2), CO2 emission (µg carbon dioxide-C g-1 h-1), N2O (ng nitrous oxide-N g-1 h-1)

Research domain: Plant Nutrition

Research question: We aimed to evaluate if wheat straw in combination with mineral fertilizer has more positive effects on plant performance than mineral fertilization alone and if this relates to changes of the extractable C:N:P ratio and microbial activity close to the roots.
