Amendment with biodiesel co-product modifies genes for N cycling (nirK, nirS, nosZ) and greenhouse gas emissions (N2O, CH4, CO2) from an acid soil
When applied to soils, ‘biodiesel co-product’ (BCP) functions as a labile source of organic C for microorganisms and promotes immobilisation of inorganic N (otherwise susceptible to leaching). However, the eff...
