The root zone of graminoids: A niche for H2-consuming acetogens in a minerotrophic peatland

The importance of acetogens for H2 turnover and overall anaerobic degradation in peatlands remains elusive. In the well-studied minerotrophic peatland fen Schlöppnerbrunnen, H2-consuming acetogens are conceptualized to be largely outcompeted by iron reducers, sulfate reducers, and hydrogenotrophic m...
