Development of goose- and duck-specific DNA markers to determine sources of Escherichia coli in waterways.

abstract：:This study measured the environmental variability which exists in a commercial aerobic composting process. The specific process studied is carried out in six decomposition cells which present six different phases of the process. Temperature, pH, and moisture content were determined in several randomly chosen sample si...
