Joel,

I'm not sure if this is exactly what your are loking for, but Deb Neher has
looked at medium- and long-term perenial systems and annual systems, and the
effects on microbial biomass and nematode communities.  These are definitely
non-crop!

Neher, D.A., and Campbell, C.L. 1994. Nematode communities and microbial
biomass in soils with annual and perenial crops.  Applied Soil Ecology
1:17-28.

The soil population is so complex that it manifestly cannot
be dealt with as a whole with any detail by any one person,
and at the same time it plays so important a part in the soil
economy that it must be studied.
