Table 1. Primers for the quantification of total abundance of
bacterial 16S rRNA genes and fungal ITS2 region, mcr A (methyl
coenzyme M reductase A: methanogens), pmo A (particulate methane
monooxygenase: methanotrophs), nif H (nitrogenase: N fixers),nos Z (nitrous oxide reductase: N2O reducers),
archaeal amo A and bacterial amo A (archaeal and bacterial
ammonia monooxygenase: ammonia oxidizers), nir S and nir K
(nitrite reductase: nitrite reducers), nxr B (beta subunit of
nitrite oxidoreductase: nitrite oxidizers), nor B (nitric oxide
reductase: N2O producers) and pho D (alkaline
phosphatase D: organic phosphorus hydrolyzers) by qPCR. The top six
genes (bold fonts) were compared with both synthetic DNA standard and
plasmid DNA standard.
