Bromeliad catchments as habitats for methanogenesis in tropical rainforest canopies
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2011 Tropical epiphytic plants within the family Bromeliaceae are unusual in that they possess foliage capable of retaining water and impounded material. This creates an acidic (pH 3.5-6.5) and anaerobic (< 1 ppm O2) environment suspended in the canopy ...
