“…Most intense in the lower mass range were signals assigned to peptides (m/z 45, 57, 70, 74, 84 and 97, 146, 147), heterocyclic N containing compounds (m/z 59, 67, 79, 81, 95, 103, 109) and carbohydrates (m/z 84, 96, 110 and 126). In the medium and higher mass range, signals of phenols and lignin monomers (m/z 152, 178, 180, 194, 196, 208, 210) Figure 1, are explained by the potato rhizopedosits cumulated over the six-week growth period, their microbial decomposition products, and leachable products of interaction with the genuine soil organic matter (Kuzyakov et al, 2003;Melnitchouck et al, 2005). The Py-FI mass spectra in Figure 2 also indicate visual differences in the molecular composition of leachates among the four variants with potatoes grown.…”
