Response of Total (DNA) and Metabolically Active (RNA) Microbial Communities in Miscanthus × Giganteus Cultivated Soil to Different Nitrogen Fertilization Rates

ABSTRACT Miscanthus × giganteus is a promising high-yielding perennial plant to meet growing bioenergy demands; however, the degree to which the soil microbiome affects its nitrogen cycling and subsequently, biomass yield remains unclear. In this study, we hypothesize that contributions of metabolic...
