Influence of tropical leaf litter on nitrogen mineralization and community structure of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria

Description of the subject. The present study concerns the relationships among leaf litter decomposition, substrate quality, ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) community composition and nitrogen (N) availability. Decomposition of organic matter affects the biogeochemical cycling of carbon (C) and N. S...
