  abstract = {{O}ur experiment evaluated the effect of maize and peanut mulched residues upon soil organic matter and denitrifying community over a five-week incubation in soil microcosms. {S}oil organic matter under peanut and maize debris contrasted in biochemical quality throughout incubation, despite identical soil {C} contents that were significantly increased by both organic amendments. {M}oreover, only soluble extracts originating from the peanut treated soils could significantly fuel semi-potential denitrification. {A}ccordingly, the composition of the nir{K} and nos{Z} communities was also specifically affected by mulch type, and the strongest impact was registered within the nos{Z} gene-bearing denitrifiers under peanut residues. {R}esidue enriched soils displayed temporal patterns of potential denitrification activity that were also dependant on residue type. {T}he highest overall emission rates were recorded with soils under maize mulch but they were not mirrored by direct {N}2{O} contents of the microcosm's headspace. {O}verall, both soil organic matter and denitrifiers community changes were conditioned throughout the decomposition kinetics by the original quality of mulched crop residues. {H}owever, the denitrification activity was decoupled both from the composition of the denitrifying community and from the soil organic matter quality.},
