Yellow River Delta
Research Article | Applied and Environmental ScienceShifts in the Bacterial Population and Ecosystem Functions in Response to Vegetation in the Yellow River Delta WetlandsVegetation probably represents the most crucial step for the ecosystem functions of wetlands, but it is unclear how microbial populations and functions shift in pace with the colonization and succession of vegetation. In this study, we found that a Cyanobacteria monospecies genus and a Gemmatimonadetes multispecies genus are fastidiously predominant in the bare and vegetative wetlands of the Yellow River Delta,...
