Metagenomics reveals global-scale contrasts in nitrogen cycling and cyanobacterial light-harvesting mechanisms in glacier cryoconite
BackgroundCryoconite granules are mineral–microbial aggregates found on glacier surfaces worldwide and are hotspots of biogeochemical reactions in...
-
Suppressed N fixation and diazotrophs after four decades of fertilization
BackgroundN fixation is one of the most important microbially driven ecosystem processes on Earth, allowing N to enter the soil from the atmosphere,...
