Nitrogen has a greater influence than phosphorus on the diazotrophic community in two successive crop seasons in Northeast China

Abstract Fertilizer-induced changes in soil nutrients regulate nitrogen (N) fixation in the terrestrial biosphere, but the influences of N and phosphorus (P) fertilization on the diazotroph communities in successive crop seasons were unclear. In this study, we assessed the effects of N and P (high v...
