A review on microbial gene and community diversity in agricultural soil
农业土壤微生物基因与群落多样性研究进展

Soil is a complex and dynamic system and sustains an immense diversity of microbes. All life forms rely on microbial processes for their survival. Microbial diversity is greater than the diversity of any other group of organisms. Microbes are responsible for diverse metabolic functions that affect soil and plant health. However microbial diversity, to a large extent, is unexplored.A range of novel methods based on rRNA and rDNA analysis have revealed parts of soil microbial diversity. The key problem posed ...
