Viral and metabolic controls on high rates of microbial sulfur and carbon cycling in wetland ecosystems

Abstract Background Microorganisms drive high rates of methanogenesis and carbon mineralization in wetland ecosystems. These signals are especially pronounced in the Prairie Pothole Region of North America, the tenth largest wetland ecosystem in the world. Sulfate reduction rates up to 22 μmol cm−3 ...
