Water table level controls methanogenic and methanotrophic communities and methane emissions in a Sphagnum-dominated peatland
ABSTRACT Peatlands are important sources of the greenhouse gas methane emissions equipoised by methanogens and methanotrophs. However, knowledge about how microbial functional groups associated with methane production and oxidation respond to water table fluctuations has been limited to date. Here,...
