peatland ecosystems, which are important sinks for atmospheric CO2 and are susceptible to
the changing climate. The objectives of this study were (i) to determine the active microbial
group and type of nitrogenase mediating diazotrophy in an ombrotrophic Sphagnum-
dominated peat bog (the S1 peat bog, Marcell Experimental Forest, Minnesota, USA); and
(ii) to determine the effect of environmental parameters (light, O2, CO2, and CH4) on …
