Selected soil physico-chemical characteristics of the investigated Typic Historthel^a

^aSoil classification was done according to US Soil Taxonomy Soil Survey Staff [34].

^bClassifications were done according to Schoeneberger et al. [32].

^cSoil colour determination was done according to the Munsell soil colour charts [72].

^dReducing soil conditions were detected by using α–α′-Dipyridil test. Soil Survey Staff [34].
