'''Our goal is to obtain quantitative evidence for richness of the microbial soil community--- more specifically, to assess functional metabolic diversity. We will quantify this soil microbial community's ability to use a variety of carbon sources for its anabolic needs and find out what proportion of the microbes in the community can process phosphates into a soluble form and/or degrade cellulose and starch into simpler raw materials?'''<BR><BR> | '''Our goal is to obtain quantitative evidence for richness of the microbial soil community--- more specifically, to assess functional metabolic diversity.
