| molecular characterization of bacterial diversity from british columbia forest soils subjected to disturbance. | bacteria from forest soils were characterized by dna sequence analysis of cloned 16s rrna gene fragments (16s clones). surface organic matter and mineral soil samples from a british columbia ministry of forests long-term soil productivity (ltsp) installation were collected during winter and summer from two disturbance treatments: whole-tree harvesting with no soil compaction (plot n) and whole-tree harvesting plus complete surface organic matter removal with heavy soil compaction (plot s). phylo ... | 2002 | 12224564 |
