Land use and seasonal effects on a Mediterranean soil bacterial community
To evaluate the effects of management practices and seasons on a soil bacterial community and the composition of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB), molecular screenings were compared among Mediterranean (Sardinia) soils with different plant covers and different agricultural practices, namely cork oak...

To evaluate the effects of management practices and seasons on a soil bacterial community and the composition of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB), molecular screenings were compared among Mediterranean (Sardinia) soils with different plant covers and different agricultural practices, namely cork oak forest, tilled/non-tilled vineyard, hay crop and pasture. We compared the fingerprints from both independent replicates and pooled samples to ascertain the best approach for studying the environmental effects on bacterial composition. The soil microbial biomass, which was estimated from the amounts of extracted soil dsDNA, was 2 to 3 folds higher in the spring than in the autumn; in the spring, it was negatively correlated with the intensity of land use. A 16S rDNA DGGE experiment confirmed that both the land use and season markedly affect the composition of the soil bacterial community.
