Soil Rhizosphere Microbial Communities and Enzyme Activities under Organic Farming in Alabama
Evaluation of the soil rhizosphere has been limited by the lack of robust assessments that can explore the vast complex structure and diversity of soil microbial communities. Our objective was to combine fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) and pyrosequencing techniques to evaluate soil microbial communit...
