Changes in the Bacterial Community Structure of Remediated Anthracene-Contaminated Soils by Laura Delgado-Balbuena (3211080)

“…On the one hand, application of earthworms removed most of the contaminant from the arable soil and had a strong effect on the bacterial community structure, i.e. a decrease in the relative abundance of the Acidobacteria, Chloroflexi and Gemmatimonadetes, and an increase in that of the Proteobacteria compared to the unamended soil. …”
