Methanotrophs from natural ecosystems as biocontrol agents for ruminant methane emissions [PDF]

, 2012
In ruminant cattle, the anaerobic fermentation of ingested plant biomass results in the production of methane (CH4). This CH4 is subsequently eructated to the environment, where it acts as a potent greenhouse gas and is one of the leading sources of ...

Variation in methanotroph-related proxies in peat deposits from Misten Bog, Hautes-Fagnes, Belgium [PDF]

, 2012
Methane emissions from peat bogs are strongly reduced by aerobic methane oxidising bacteria (methanotrophs) living in association with Sphagnum spp. Field studies and laboratory experiments have revealed that, with increasing water level and temperature,

Methylmercury uptake and degradation by methanotrophs [PDF]

, 2017
Methylmercury (CH3Hg+) is a potent neurotoxin produced by certain anaerobic microorganisms in natural environments. Although numerous studies have characterized the basis of mercury (Hg) methylation, no studies have examined CH3Hg+ degradation by ...

Spatial variations of community structures and methane cycling across a transect of Lei-Gong-Hou mud volcanoes in eastern Taiwan

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
This study analyzed cored sediments retrieved from sites distributed across a transect of the Lei-Gong-Hou mud volcanoes in eastern Taiwan to uncover the spatial distributions of biogeochemical processes and community assemblages involved in methane ...

New Methyloceanibacter diversity from North Sea sediments includes methanotroph containing solely the soluble methane monooxygenase [PDF]

, 2016
Marine methylotrophs play a key role in the global carbon cycle by metabolizing reduced one-carbon compounds that are found in high concentrations in marine environments.

High Throughput Sequencing to Detect Differences in Methanotrophic Methylococcaceae and Methylocystaceae in Surface Peat, Forest Soil, and Sphagnum Moss in Cranesville Swamp Preserve, West Virginia, USA

Microorganisms, 2015
Northern temperate forest soils and Sphagnum-dominated peatlands are a major source and sink of methane. In these ecosystems, methane is mainly oxidized by aerobic methanotrophic bacteria, which are typically found in aerated forest soils, surface peat ...

Trace Metal Requirements for Microbial Enzymes Involved in the Production and Consumption of Methane and Nitrous Oxide [PDF]

, 2012
Fluxes of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere are heavily influenced by microbiological activity. Microbial enzymes involved in the production and consumption of greenhouse gases often contain metal cofactors.
