| archaeal communities in high arctic wetlands at spitsbergen, norway (78 degrees n) as characterized by 16s rrna gene fingerprinting. | emissions of the greenhouse gas methane from arctic wetlands have been studied extensively, though little is known about the ecology and community structure of methanogenic archaea that catalyze the methane production. as part of a project addressing microbial transformations of methane in arctic wetlands, we studied archaeal communities in two wetlands (solvatnet and stuphallet) at spitsbergen, norway (78 degrees n) during two summer seasons. directly extracted peat community dna and enrichment ... | 2005 | 16329932 |
