Soil bacterial communities (Hainich National Park)

Citation

Description

This study focuses on the influence of tree species composition, soil properties and seasonality on the structure of soil bacterial communities by employing high-throughput sequencing of the 16SrRNA gene. Soil cores were collected from bulk soil (0 - 5 cm depth) within eight tree clusters containing mono-species (beech, horn, lime and oak) and mixed-species (BOH, BOL, BHL and OHL) stands during Spring, Summer and Autumn 2012.
