Necessity of electrically conductive pili for methanogenesis with magnetite stimulation [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Background Magnetite-mediated direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) between Geobacter and Methanosarcina species is increasingly being invoked to explain magnetite stimulation of methane production in anaerobic soils and sediments.

Bats Use Magnetite to Detect the Earth's Magnetic Field [PDF]
, 2008 While the role of magnetic cues for compass orientation has been confirmed in numerous animals, the mechanism of detection is still debated. Two hypotheses have been proposed, one based on a light dependent mechanism, apparently used by birds and another
