Metagenomic sequencing of field soil samples (control CK and treatments SRF, SST, SCM)
A field experiment was conducted to evaluate the mitigation effects of methanotrophic consortia inoculation on CH4 emissions from rice paddies. Treatments included: conventional fertilization (CK) and conventional fertilization combined with inoculation of one of three consortia (SRF, SST, or SCM). A randomized design with four replicates was conducted for every treatment. Soil samples were collected for metagenomic sequencing.
