From: Organic carbon transformations in high-Arctic peat soils: key functions and microorganisms
Schematic overview of the main degradation pathways of plant polymers in the high-Arctic peatlands of Svalbard. The pathways are divided into three categories; aerobic (beige), anaerobic (light brown) and processes occurring under both conditions (dark brown). Key microbial taxa for the different degradation steps are presented (orange boxes). The figure is adapted from Figure 1 in (Conrad, 1999).
