Relating phylogenetic and functional diversity among denitrifiers and quantifying their capacity to predict community functioning
Genetic diversity of phylogenetic or functional markers is widely used as a proxy of microbial diversity. However, it remains unclear at what extent functional diversity, gene sequence diversity and community functioning are linked. We analysed, for a range of denitrifying bacteria, the relationshi...
