Expansion of aerobic methanotrophy to the phylum of Actinomycetota and its environmental implications [PDF]
For over a century, taxonomically validated pure cultures of aerobic methanotrophs belonged to Pseudomonadota, or since 2007, Verrucomicrobiota. A recent article published in Applied and Environmental Microbiology by H. Kambara, T.

Methane-cycling microbial communities are spatially structured, seasonally dynamic, and functionally coupled in sediments of two nearby eutrophic hydroelectric reservoirs [PDF]
Hydroelectric reservoirs, which are expanding worldwide, are freshwater bodies that, despite being considered environmentally friendly, are important sources of methane emissions. Methane emissions vary with the availability of organic matter, especially

Pushing the upper temperature limit of methanotrophy in continental hydrothermal ecosystems, active biological methane oxidation in hot springs of Yellowstone National Park [PDF]
Methane oxidation in terrestrial geothermal systems is an understudied process contributing to carbon cycling in extreme environments. We combined geochemical analyses, 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing, shotgun metagenome sequencing, and 14CH4 microcosm

Diversity and community assembly mechanisms of soil methanotrophs in typical ecotypes of the Mitika alpine wetland in northern Xizang [PDF]
The Mitika alpine wetland is a globally important wetland on the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau, which serves as a vital carbon reservoir on Earth’s surface.

Genomic insights into a versatile deep-sea methanotroph constituting the rare biosphere of a Brazilian carbonate mound complex [PDF]
Recent discoveries of aerobic methanotrophs in non-seep carbonate-rich environments in the deep sea suggest that these organisms may persist as part of the rare biosphere.

Aerobic Methane Oxidation in the Water Column of the Shallow Eutrophic Temperate Lake Kasumigaura [PDF]
Lake Kasumigaura, the second-largest lake in Japan, is shallow, well-oxygenated, and eutrophic. Since shallow lakes are hotspots for methane(CH4)emissions, understanding CH4 oxidation - the process that reduces CH4 emissions - is essential.

Resilience of aerobic methanotrophs in soils; spotlight on the methane sink under agriculture. [PDF]
Aerobic methanotrophs are a specialized microbial group, catalyzing the oxidation of methane. Disturbance-induced loss of methanotroph diversity/abundance, thus results in the loss of this biological methane sink.
