Evolving understanding of rumen methanogen ecophysiology

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Production of methane by methanogenic archaea, or methanogens, in the rumen of ruminants is a thermodynamic necessity for microbial conversion of feed to volatile fatty acids, which are essential nutrients for the animals. On the other hand, methane is a

Development of temporal temperature gradient electrophoresis for characterising methanogen diversity.

open access: yes, 2005
Temporal temperature gradient electrophoretic (TTGE) analysis of 16S rDNA sequences was optimized to monitor the methanogen population present in water and sediments of a small eutrophic lake, Priest Pot, in the English Lake district.

Novel Methanobacterium Strain Induces Severe Corrosion by Retrieving Electrons from Fe0 under a Freshwater Environment

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
Methanogens capable of accepting electrons from Fe0 cause severe corrosion in anoxic conditions. In previous studies, all iron-corrosive methanogenic isolates were obtained from marine environments.

In vitro interactions between Blautia hydrogenotrophica, Desulfovibrio piger and Methanobrevibacter smithii under hydrogenotrophic conditions

open access: yesGut Microbes, 2023
Methanogens, reductive acetogens and sulfate-reducing bacteria play an important role in disposing of hydrogen in gut ecosystems. However, how they interact with each other remains largely unknown. This in vitro study cocultured Blautia hydrogenotrophica

Bromeliad catchments as habitats for methanogenesis in tropical rainforest canopies

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

Establishment and development of ruminal hydrogenotrophs in methanogen-free lambs

open access: yes, 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 ...

Metabolic versatility in methanogens

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Biotechnology, 2014
Methanogenesis is an anaerobic metabolism responsible for the generation of >90% of the methane formed on Earth today, with important implications for fuels production and global warming. Although methanogenic Archaea have been cultured for over 70 years, key insights regarding electron flow and energy conservation in methanogenesis have only recently ...

Iron to Gas: Versatile Multiport Flow-Column Revealed Extremely High Corrosion Potential by Methanogen-Induced Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (Mi-MIC)

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Currently, sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) is regarded as the main culprit of microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC), mainly due to the low reported corrosion rates of other microorganisms.
