Phylogenetic and functional marker genes to study ammonia-oxidizing microorganisms (AOM) in the environment
- P. Junier, V. Molina, +5 authors J. Imhoff
- Biology, Medicine
- Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology
- 24 September 2009
The oxidation of ammonia plays a significant role in the transformation of fixed nitrogen in the global nitrogen cycle. Autotrophic ammonia oxidation is known in three groups of microorganisms.… Expand

- 1 April 2008
Over recent years, several PCR primers have been described to amplify genes encoding the structural subunits of ammonia monooxygenase (AMO) from ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB). Most of them target… Expand
Bacterial community structure and soil properties of a subarctic tundra soil in Council, Alaska
The subarctic region is highly responsive and vulnerable to climate change. Understanding the structure of subarctic soil microbial communities is essential for predicting the response of the… Expand
Soil development and bacterial community shifts along the chronosequence of the Midtre Lovenbreen glacier foreland in Svalbard
- Hye young Kwon, J. Jung, O. Kim, Dominique Laffly, H. S. Lim, Y. K. Lee
- Environmental Science
- 28 November 2015
Global warming has accelerated glacial retreat in the high Arctic. The exposed glacier foreland is an ideal place to study chronosequential changes in ecosystems. Although vegetation succession in… Expand
