Abundance of the genes involved in nitrogen metabolism. Abundance was normalized to the total read abundance of KEGG-annotated genes in each sample (adjusted to 1,000,000). a Abundance of the key genes encoding key enzymes and/or subunits for nitrogen metabolism. Inset shows a schematic of inorganic nitrogen metabolism. Arrow colors corresponded to the colors of the responsible genes. The genes responsible for anaerobic ammonia oxidation, indicated by the white arrow, were not detected in this study. b Taxonomic composition of the genes involved in nitrate/nitrite reduction and oxidation
