Ammonia-Oxidizer Communities in an Agricultural Soil treated with Contrasting Nitrogen Sources.
The community of ammonia-oxidizing prokaryotes was examined in an agricultural soil treated for 6 seasons with contrasting nitrogen (N) sources. Molecular tools based on the gene encoding ammonia monooxygenase were used to characterize the ammonia oxidizer communities and their abundance. Soil DNA...
