Abstract
It is shown that prolonged use of fertilizers has induced some changes in properties of the clay (pelitic) fractions of typical chernozems, promoting vermiculitization of the hydromica, coagulation of the swell ing colloids, and the formation of an unordered mixed-lattice mineral phase; on the other hand, it has not affected the content or compositi on of the light and heavy minerals in the various size fractions.
