Abstract excerpt
In order to investigate the effects of long-term application of nitrogen fertilizer on soil denitrifying communities, the diversities of nir genes (nirK and nirS) were studied using molecular approaches in the long-term paddy field experiment (started in 1990) located in Taoyuan. Analysis of clone sequences indicated that the nirK fragments from paddy soil showed close similarity (90.7%) to the nirK sequences...
