Needles of Pinus halepensis as biomonitors of bioaerosol emissions. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2014 We propose using the surface of pine trees needles to biomonitor the bioaerosol emissions at a composting plant. Measurements were based on 16S rRNA gene copy numbers of Saccharopolyspora rectivirgula, a bioindicator of composting plant emissions. A sampling plan was established based on 29 samples around the emission source.
