Isolation of phyllosilicate-iron redox cycling microorganisms from an illite-smectite rich hydromorphic soil

The biogeochemistry of phyllosilicate-Fe redox cycling was studied in a Phalaris arundinacea (Reed Canary Grass) dominated redoximorphic soil from Shovelers Sink, a small glacial depression near Madison, WI. The clay size fraction of Shovelers Sink soil accounts for 16% of the dry weight of the soil...
