Termite Societies Promote the Taxonomic and Functional Diversity of Archaeal Communities in Mound Soils

Recent studies involving microbial communities in termite mounds have been more focused on bacteria and fungi with little attention given to archaea, which play significant roles in nutrient cycling. Thus, we aimed at characterizing the archaeal taxonomic and functional diversity in two termite moun...
