The mechanisms underlying community composition and diversity of soil archaea are poorly understood. We compared both total archaea and ammonia oxidizing archaea (AOA) using 16S rRNA and amoA genes pyrosequencing respectively, in two different biomes: tropics (Malaysia), and temperate (Korea and Jap...
