Bacterial diversity of decomposing oil palm empty fruit bunches based on PCR and denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis of 16S rRNA gene fragments

The microbial community that inhabit the thermophilic stage of composting process consist of complex thermophile communities that interact with each other to biodegrade lignocellulosic materials. The diversity of this community during oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB) composting was investigated...
