Daftar Isi:
  • The potentials of nitrous oxide (N2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2)production in acid tea soils from Indonesia and Japan were investigatedin a laboratory incubation experiment, and the communitystructures of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria in these soils werecharacterized using PCR-DGGE approaches. The soils used weresampled from tea plantations in Shizuoka, Japan and in Bogor andMalino, Indonesia. All of the soils were acidic (pH 3.45 to 4.00). TheN2O and CO2 production in Shizuoka was almost 5 times higherthan in Bogor and Malino. All of the amoA gene sequences definedbelong to the genus Nitrosospira sp. with cluster 2 and cluster 3a. Keywords:Acid tea soils, Ammonia Oxidizing Bacteria (AOB), CO2,N2O
