Microbial degradation of dimethylsulphide and related C1-sulphur compounds: organisms and pathways controlling fluxes of sulphur in the biosphere [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Dimethylsulphide (DMS) plays a major role in the global sulphur cycle. It has important implications for atmospheric chemistry, climate regulation, and sulphur transport from the marine to the atmospheric and terrestrial environments.

Enzymes involved in the anaerobic oxidation of n-alkanes: from methane to long-chain paraffins

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2013
Anaerobic microorganisms play key roles in the biogeochemical cycling of methane and non-methane alkanes. To date, there appear to be at least three proposed mechanisms of anaerobic methane oxidation (AOM). The first pathway is mediated by consortia of

A metagenomic study of methanotrophic microorganisms in Coal Oil Point seep sediments

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2011
Background Methane oxidizing prokaryotes in marine sediments are believed to function as a methane filter reducing the oceanic contribution to the global methane emission.

Biochar-Mediated Anaerobic Oxidation of Methane

open access: yesEnvironmental Science & Technology, 2019
Biochar was recently identified as an effective soil amendment for CH4 capture. Corresponding mechanisms are currently recognized to be from physical properties of biochar, providing a favorable growth environment for aerobic methanotrophs which perform aerobic methane (CH4) oxidation.

Nitrate-Dependent Iron Oxidation: A Potential Mars Metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This work considers the hypothetical viability of microbial nitrate-dependent Fe2+ oxidation (NDFO) for supporting simple life in the context of the early Mars environment.

Methane-yielding microbial communities processing lactate-rich substrates: a piece of the anaerobic digestion puzzle

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2018
Background Anaerobic digestion, whose final products are methane and carbon dioxide, ensures energy flow and circulation of matter in ecosystems. This naturally occurring process is used for the production of renewable energy from biomass.

Microbial Communities Involved in Methane, Sulfur, and Nitrogen Cycling in the Sediments of the Barents Sea

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2021
A combination of physicochemical and radiotracer analysis, high-throughput sequencing of the 16S rRNA, and particulate methane monooxygenase subunit A (pmoA) genes was used to link a microbial community profile with methane, sulfur, and nitrogen cycling ...

Release of CO2 and CH4 from lakes and drainage ditches in temperate wetlands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Shallow fresh water bodies in peat areas are important contributors to greenhouse gas fluxes to the atmosphere. In this study we determined the magnitude of CH4 and CO2 fluxes from 12 water bodies in Dutch wetlands during the summer season and studied ...

A novel identified Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which exhibited nitrate‐ and nitrite‐dependent methane oxidation abilities, could alleviate the disadvantages caused by nitrate supplementation in rumen fluid fermentation

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, 2021
Summary After the occurrence of nitrate‐dependent anaerobic methane oxidation (AMO) in rumen fluid culture was proved, the organisms that perform the denitrifying anaerobic methane oxidizing (DAMO) process in the rumen of dairy goat were investigated by ...
