We investigated the effects of bioaugmentation and biostimulation by introducing a lignocellulolytic microbial consortium and supplying the available nutrients. The V3-V4 region (341F/806R) of bacterial 16S rRNA was amplified and sequenced to analysis the soil microbial community during this process.
