Effects of transgenic hybrid aspen over-expressing polyphenol oxidase on the diversity of rhizosphere bacteria and fungi

A greenhouse experiment was carried out to screen for potential effects of transgenic aspen over-expressing a hybrid poplar leaf polyphenol oxidase gene on rhizosphere communities. Heterotrophic plate counts and cultivation-independent methods were used to compare bacterial and fungal populations as...
