Besides, the studies provided the information on quantitative and qualitative composition of amino acids as well as the amount of water soluble sugars in roots exudates of these cereals. The microbiological analysis of I g of dry weight of soil coming from the rhizosphere of spring wheat revealed the mean number of 4.94 x I O' bacteria colonies and 45.08 x 1 O 3 fungi colonies. In the case ofwinter wheat, in Ig of dry weight of the rhizosphere soil 5.07 x 10 'bacteria colonies and 28.59 x l O 3 fungi colonies (mean of three year studies) were found. Besides, winter wheat, through the proper composition of root exudates, created positive nutritional conditions for the growth of microorganisms showing antagonistic effect towards pathogenic fungi. The rhizosphere soil of winter wheat contained 1.5 times more antagonistic bacteria and more than twice antagonistic fungi as compared to spring wheat.}, type={Article}, title={The formation of the population of bacteria and fungi in the rhizosphere of spring wheat and winter wheat}, URL={http://www.journals.pan.pl/Content/131234/PDF-MASTER/10_PLANT_40_2_2000_Pieta_The_Formation.pdf}, keywords={spring wheat, root exudates, antagonistic microorganisms, winter wheat}, }
