Mechanistic strategies of microbial communities regulating lignocellulose deconstruction in a UK salt marsh

Abstract Background Salt marshes are major natural repositories of sequestered organic carbon with high burial rates of organic matter, produced by highly productive native flora. Accumulated carbon predominantly exists as lignocellulose which is metabolised by communities of functionally diverse mi...
