Project description:Transcriptional profiling of marine ammonia oxidizing archaea Nitrosopumilus maritimus cells comparing exponential phase control cells with cells under 24 hours starvation and with cells under recovery after 24 hours starvation. Goal was to determine the effects of global transcriptional responses of N. maritimus cells under ammonia starvation and recovery conditions.
Project description:Microbes play key roles in diverse biogeochemical processes including nutrient cycling. However, responses of soil microbial community at the functional gene level to long-term fertilization, especially integrated fertilization (chemical combined with organic fertilization) remain unclear. Here we used microarray-based GeoChip techniques to explore the shifts of soil microbial functional community in a nutrient-poor paddy soil with long-term (21 years).The long-term fertilization experiment site (set up in 1990) was located in Taoyuan agro-ecosystem research station (28°55’N, 111°27’E), Chinese Academy of Sciences, Hunan Province, China, with a double-cropped rice system. fertilization at various regimes.
