effects of temperature on the diversity and community structure of known methanogenic groups and other archaea in high arctic peat. | archaeal populations are abundant in cold and temperate environments, but little is known about their potential response to climate change-induced temperature changes. the effects of temperature on archaeal communities in unamended slurries of weakly acidic peat from spitsbergen were studied using a combination of fluorescent in situ hybridization (fish), 16s rrna gene clone libraries and denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (dgge). a high relative abundance of active archaeal cells (11-12% o ... | 2008 | 18180745 |
