Impacts of n-alkane concentration on soil bacterial community structure and alkane monooxygenase genes abundance during bioremediation processes
Abstract
Soil microbial community is not significantly shaped by alkane concentrations Alkane concentrations alter dominant alkane degraders in soils Different alkanes are preferentially degraded at different contamination level Different types of alkane monooxygenase genes responsible for alkane degradation
