Differential growth responses of soil bacterial taxa to carbon substrates of varying chemical recalcitrance

Differential growth responses of soil bacterial taxa to carbon substrates of varying chemical recalcitrance

Soils are immensely diverse microbial habitats with thousands of co-existing bacterial, archaeal and fungal species. Across broad spatial scales, factors such as pH and soil moisture appear to determine the diversity and structure of soil bacterial communities. Within any one site however, bacterial...
