Linking N2O emissions from biochar-amended soil to the structure and function of the N-cycling microbial community (2013, background): “(2011) who suggested that decreased N2O emissions from biochar-amended soil might be caused by an enhanced growth and activity of microorganisms capable of complete denitrification (Anderson et al., 2011).”
Comparative analysis of the microbial communities in agricultural soil amended with enhanced biochars or traditional fertilisers (2014, methodology): “, 2011) and DNA fingerprinting or sequencing of the 16S ribosomal RNA (16S rRNA) gene (Anderson et al., 2011; Kolton et al., 2011).”
Biochar alters the soil microbiome and soil function: results of next‐generation amplicon sequencing across Europe (2017, background): “This may suggest an increase in the rate of ammonification by soil communities in response to biochar, or a decline in the rate of nitrification, leading to a build-up of ammonium within the soil, in agreement with previous studies (DeLuca et al., 2006; Anderson et al., 2011).”
