Abstract
Background: Although archaea are widespread in terrestrial environments, little is known about the selection forces that shape their composition, functions, survival, and proliferation strategies in the rhizosphere. The ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA), which are abundant in soil environments, catalyze the first step of nitrification and have the potential to influence plant growth and development significantly. Results: Based on archaeal 16S rRNA and amoA gene (encoding the ammonia monooxygenase
