  abstract = {{S}oil microbial biomass carbon ({MBC}), β-glucosidase, acid phosphatase and fluorescein diacetate ({FDA}) activities and bacterial community structure were assessed in a long-term (26 years) experiment, at physiological stages of sorghum growth, comparing different management methods for organic (manure, straw residues) and inorganic (urea) amendments at the {INERA} field station in {S}aria ({B}urkina {F}aso). {A}nnual application of manure led to the highest soil microbial biomass and enzyme activities. {I}nvestigations indicated that only microbial biomass and β-glucosidase activities were affected during the cropping season. {P}hosphatase and {FDA} enzyme activities did not depend on the crop development stages. {T}he application of {N} fertilizer modified phosphatase and {FDA} enzyme activities, the activities being higher in soils amended with {N} fertilizer. {T}he bacterial community structure was analyzed by {PCR}-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis ({PCR}-{DGGE}) targeting the eubacterial 16{S} r{RNA} gene. {C}luster analysis of {PCR}-{DGGE} patterns showed two major clusters, the first containing the mineral fertilization and straw treatments and the second, the straw + urea, manure and manure + urea treatments. {S}orghum grain yields were the highest for manure treatments. {I}n this long-term experiment, applying straw did not produce a better grain yield than that obtained in the un-amended plot.},
