Ammonium-Generating Microbial Consortia in Paddy Soil Revealed by DNA-Stable Isotope Probing and Metatranscriptomics [PDF]
Rice paddy fields are sustainable agricultural systems as soil microorganisms help maintain nitrogen fertility through generating ammonium. In these soils, dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNRA), nitrogen fixation, and denitrification are ...
