Plant-Mediated Changes in Soil N-Cycling Genes during Revegetation of Copper Mine Tailings
Nitrogen limitation represents a major bottleneck during the revegetation of mine tailings. However, controls over key nitrogen-cycling genes in rhizospheric soils under differential vegetation management remain poorly understood. The abundance and transcriptional activity of nitrogen-cycling genes...
