Identify the sentence that uses adjective in comparison form! (1) Cultivation of a single crop on a given tract of land leads eventually to decreased yields. (2) One reason for this is that harmful bacterial phytopathogens, organisms parasitic on plant hosts, increase in the soil surrounding plant roots. (3) The problem can be cured by crop rotation, denying the pathogens a suitable host for a period of time. (4) However, even if crops are not rotated, the severity of diseases brought on by such phytopathogens often decreases after a number of years as the microbial population of the soil changes and the soil becomes “suppressive” to those diseases. (5) While there may be many reasons for this phenomenon, it is clear that levels of certain bacteria, such as Pseudomonas fluorescens, a bacterium antagonistic to a number of harmful phytopathogens, are greater in suppressive than in non suppressive soil.
