Comparisons of diazotrophic communities in native and agricultural desert ecosystems reveal plants as important drivers in diversity
Diazotrophs provide the only biological source of fixed atmospheric nitrogen in the biosphere. Although they are the key player for plant-available nitrogen, less is known about their diversity and potential importance in arid ecosystems. We investigated the nitrogenase gene diversity in native and...
