Long-Term Effects of Periodical Fires on Archaeal Communities from Brazilian Cerrado Soils

Table 1

α-Diversity analysis of archaeal 16S rRNA gene sequences from Cerrado sensu stricto soils in both conditions analyzed in this study. C = Control area, protected from fire for 20 years, and Q = Burned Area, biennially burned. Measures were calculated independently for each replicate and the mean and standard deviation (SD) of the indicators are shown.
