- SAF Stable aggregate fraction, SOC Soil organic carbon, DOC Dissolved organic carbon, and Cmic microbial biomass carbon values of soils under two tillage systems, sampled at three different depths. Average values and standard deviations (±) are calculated based on triplicates (n = 3). Detected influence (p < 0.05) is symbolized for depth (*) or interaction of tillage and depth (#), respectively
