Controlled irrigation suppresses methane emissions by reshaping the rhizosphere microbiomes in rice

Kenny Jx Lau, Ali Ma, Bin Chen, Maria Shibu Thankaraj Salammal, Srinivasan Ramachandran, Naweed I. Naqvi

This study shows that controlled drip irrigation reduces methane emissions in rice by altering rhizosphere microbiomes, favoring nitrifying bacteria over methanogens.
