Cyanobacterial assimilatory nitrate reductase gene diversity in coastal and oligotrophic marine environments.

abstract：:Global change models indicate that rainfall patterns are likely to shift towards more extreme events concurrent with increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration ([CO2 ]). Both changes in [CO2 ] and rainfall regime are known to impact above- and belowground communities, but the interactive effects of these glob...
