Due to its small volume (100 μl/well), the community size can be less than 10,000 individuals/well, which is a nonnegligible source of stochasticity in the initial species composition among the 96 wells in a plate. This could result in variation in color density among identical substrates within a plate (Zhou et al., 2013). To reduce the stochastic effect, three repeated sets of 31 different response wells were conducted for each plot (https://esj-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/1440-1703.12293).

_Protocol _

1. Measure 10 g of the soil sample.
2. Add 10 ml of distilled water and gently shake the flask."
3. Inoculate the ecoplate with 100 µL for each well."
4. Incubate plates at 37°C."
5. Read at 590 nm on days 0, 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, and 14.
