Microbial communities, however, have rarely been studied in fens in this context. In this thesis, I used high-throughput 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing of DNA and cDNA, qPCR, and geochemical analyses to assess how rewetting and drying of fens influences methane producers (methanogens) and consumers (methanotrophs). Fen rewetting promoted the establishment of methanogens, while short-term drought promoted methanotroph establishment. %L 500 %9 theses %9 Text %9 Hochschulschrift %R 10.18453/rosdok_id00003627 %U http://purl.uni-rostock.de/rosdok/id00003627 %U https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-rosdok_id00003627-6 %U https://d-nb.info/1293537454/34 %U https://doi.org/10.18453/rosdok_id00003627
