Nitrate decreases ruminal methane production with slight changes to ruminal methanogen composition of nitrate-adapted steers [PDF]
BMC Microbiology, 2018 Background This study was conducted to examine effects of nitrate on ruminal methane production, methanogen abundance, and composition. Six rumen-fistulated Limousin×Jinnan steers were fed diets supplemented with either 0% (0NR), 1% (1NR), or 2% (2NR ...

Methanogenic archaea in peatlands [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2020 ABSTRACT Methane emission feedbacks in wetlands are predicted to influence global climate under climate change and other anthropogenic stressors. Herein, we review the taxonomy and physiological ecology of the microorganisms responsible for methane production in peatlands.

The evolving role of methanogenic archaea in mammalian microbiomes
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 Methanogenic archaea (methanogens) represent a diverse group of microorganisms that inhabit various environmental and host-associated microbiomes. These organisms play an essential role in global carbon cycling given their ability to produce methane, a ...

Recent advances in constructed wetlands methane reduction: Mechanisms and methods
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 Constructed wetlands (CWs) are artificial systems that use natural processes to treat wastewater containing organic pollutants. This approach has been widely applied in both developing and developed countries worldwide, providing a cost-effective method ...

Establishment and development of ruminal hydrogenotrophs in methanogen-free lambs [PDF]
, 2007 International audienceThe aim of this work was to determine whether reductive acetogenesis can provide an alternative to methanogenesis in the rumen. Gnotobiotic lambs were inoculated with a functional rumen microbiota lacking methanogens and reared to ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, 25 times more efficient at trapping heat than carbon dioxide. Ruminant methane emissions contribute almost 30% to anthropogenic sources of global atmospheric methane levels and a reduction in methane emissions would ...

Rumen methanogens: a review [PDF]
Indian Journal of Microbiology, 2010 The Methanogens are a diverse group of organisms found in anaerobic environments such as anaerobic sludge digester, wet wood of trees, sewage, rumen, black mud, black sea sediments, etc which utilize carbon dioxide and hydrogen and produce methane. They are nutritionally fastidious anaerobes with the redox potential below -300 mV and usually grow at pH
