High diversity of diazotrophs in the forefield of a receding alpine glacier.

Microbial ecology - 1 Jan 2009

Duc Laurence, Noll Matthias, Meier Brigitte E, Bürgmann Helmut, Zeyer Josef

Abstract excerpt

Forefields of receding glaciers are unique and sensitive environments representing natural chronosequences. In such habitats, microbial nitrogen fixation is of particular interest since the low concentration of bioavailable nitrogen is one of the key limitations for growth of plants and soil microorganisms. Asymbiotic nitrogen fixation in the Damma glacier (Swiss Central Alps) forefield soils was assessed using...
