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.

Ecological and Technological Insights to Enhance Rice Production: A Machine Learning Approach for Sustainable Agriculture in Granma, Cuba

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amid the quest for sustainable agriculture, this study explores key ecological and technological factors influencing crop production under climate change. We conduct a comprehensive assessment of temperature, biomass, farmer education, renewable energy devices, greenhouse gas emissions and their effects on rice yields in Granma, Cuba, from ...

Physiological Evidence for Isopotential Tunneling in the Electron Transport Chain of Methane-Producing Archaea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Many, but not all, organisms use quinones to conserve energy in their electron transport chains. Fermentative bacteria and methane-producing archaea (methanogens) do not produce quinones but have devised other ways to generate ATP. Methanophenazine (MPh)

Comparison of Three Sympatric Desert Lizards: Digestive Tract Structure, Digestive Enzyme Activities, Gut Microbiota, and Metabolites

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We performed 16S rDNA sequencing and metabolite profiling for three sympatric lizard species—Teratoscincus roborowskii, Phrynocephalus axillaris, and Eremias roborowskii—and compared their goblet cell and enzyme activities in the digestive tract. Our study suggests that the dietary niche may promote divergence or convergence of microbiota across host ...

Microbial co-existence and stable equilibria in a mechanistic model of enteric methane production : a thesis presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Mathematics at Massey University, Manawatū Campus, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Globally, 14.5% of all anthropogenic greenhouse gases come from ruminants. One of these is methane, which is produced in the rumen of ruminant animals. Feed is degraded by microbes to produce volatile fatty acids (which are absorbed by the animal) and

Effect of Moderate Heat on TCE Reductive Dechlorination Rates in Groundwater

open access: yesGroundwater Monitoring &Remediation, EarlyView.
Abstract Low‐temperature heating (in the mesophilic range of ~15 to 40 °C) of contaminated aquifers offers the prospect of increasing the rates for biotic and abiotic treatment of volatile organic compounds. Thermal In Situ Sustainable Remediation (TISR®) is one of the approaches available to implement low temperature heating.

How Plants May Maintain Protein Homeostasis Under Rising Atmospheric CO2

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vascular plants may employ several physiological mechanisms to stabilize their protein contents as atmospheric CO2 concentrations change over a day, year, decade, or century. One mechanism is that plants may rely more on soil ammonium as their nitrogen source when CO2 increases.

Association between fecal methanogen species with methane production and grazed forage intake of beef heifers classified for residual feed intake under drylot conditions

open access: yesAnimal, 2021
Reduction in greenhouse gas emission from beef production is essential to the survival of the beef industry from environmental and social-economic perspectives. There are different systems available to measure methane from animals, but they are expensive,

Optimizing Genetic Manipulation of Methanogens through Faster Cloning Techniques [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Methanogenesis is the biological production of methane. Only anaerobic archaea known as methanogens are capable of such a metabolic feat. They have strict living conditions and substrate sources which determine their rate of metabolism.
