Abstract
Searching for Rare Type Associations in Bacterial Communities from Ancient Copper Mining Areas in The East Harz Region (Germany)
Highlights
Mining areas and other heavy metal-contaminated places are frequently in the focus of investigations on soil microbial communities [1,2]
Microorganisms which tolerate extreme environmental conditions are frequently found in these communities, among them acidophilic, halophilic and heavy metal-tolerant bacteria [57]
Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria are dominating in the most samples
Summary
Mining areas and other heavy metal-contaminated places are frequently in the focus of investigations on soil microbial communities [1,2]. Copyright © J Michael Köhler was to compare the composition of the microbial communities on the recent surface of historical mining places and search for associations of soil bacteria.
