New Arsenite Oxidase Gene (aioA) PCR Primers for Assessing Arsenite-Oxidizer Diversity in the Environment Using High-Throughput Sequencing

Gene encoding the large subunit of As(III) oxidase (AioA), an important component of the microbial As(III) oxidation system, is a widely used biomarker to characterize As(III)-oxidizing communities in the environment. However, many studies were restricted to a few sequences generated by clone librar...
