High resolution depth distribution of Bacteria, Archaea, methanotrophs, and methanogens in the bulk and rhizosphere soils of a flooded rice paddy

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2015
The communities and abundances of methanotrophs and methanogens, along with the oxygen, methane, and total organic carbon (TOC) concentrations, were investigated along a depth gradient in a flooded rice paddy.

Novel copper-containing membrane monooxygenases (CuMMOs) encoded by alkane-utilizing Betaproteobacteria. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Copper-containing membrane monooxygenases (CuMMOs) are encoded by xmoCAB(D) gene clusters and catalyze the oxidation of methane, ammonia, or some short-chain alkanes and alkenes.

Millimetre‐Scale Stratification of Microbial Communities in Hydrothermal Sediments

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 1, January 2026.
Zooming into the millimetre‐scale spatial distribution of organic molecules in hydrothermally impacted sediments using mass spectrometry imaging reveals a distinct lipid zonation with abrupt transitions at critical redox interfaces. This zonation reflects a pronounced stratification of diverse microbial communities and highlights surprisingly ...

Enzymes of an alternative pathway of glucose metabolism in obligate methanotrophs

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Aerobic methanotrophic bacteria utilize methane as a growth substrate but are unable to grow on any sugars. In this study we have shown that two obligate methanotrophs, Methylotuvimicrobium alcaliphilum 20Z and Methylobacter luteus IMV-B-3098, possess ...

Facultative methanotrophs are abundant at terrestrial natural gas seeps [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: Natural gas contains methane and the gaseous alkanes ethane, propane and butane, which collectively influence atmospheric chemistry and cause global warming.

Thermophilic methane oxidation is widespread in Aotearoa-New Zealand geothermal fields

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Geothermal areas represent substantial point sources for greenhouse gas emissions such as methane. While it is known that methanotrophic microorganisms act as a biofilter, decreasing the efflux of methane in most soils to the atmosphere, the diversity ...

Denitrification coupled with methane anoxic oxidation and microbial community involved identification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this work, the biological denitrification associated with anoxic oxidation of methane and the microbial diversity involved were studied. Kinetic tests for nitrate (NO3-) and nitrite (NO2-) removal and methane uptake were carried out in 100 mL batch ...

Biochar: A Sustainable Solution for Mitigating Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Enhancing Soil Productivity—A Review

open access: yesScientifica, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Greenhouse gases (GHGs) resulting from human activities significantly impact crop production and agricultural sustainability, necessitating innovative solutions to mitigate their effects. One promising approach is employing biochar for GHG mitigation, providing a potential means to offset emissions and enhance crop productivity sustainably.

Unexpected role of canonical aerobic methanotrophs in upland agricultural soils

open access: yesSoil Biology and Biochemistry, 2019
Aerobic oxidation of methane at (circum-)atmospheric concentrations (<40 ppmv) has long been assumed to be catalyzed by the as-yet-uncultured high-affinity methanotrophs in well-aerated, non-wetland (upland) soils, the only known biological methane sink globally.

Methane Transport Pathways and Oxidation in a Minnesota Bog

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Despite the widely recognized importance of wetland CH4 emissions as a climate change feedback, simultaneous measurements of CH4 transport pathways and oxidation in a wetland are rare. Thus, these critical components of many CH4 models are poorly parameterized because of the lack of appropriate data.
