Diversity of Methanogens in Animals’ Gut

Microorganisms, 2020
Methanogens are members of anaerobe microbiota of the digestive tract of mammals, including humans. However, the sources, modes of acquisition, and dynamics of digestive tract methanogens remain poorly investigated.

Interactions between Anaerobic Fungi and Methanogens in the Rumen and Their Biotechnological Potential in Biogas Production from Lignocellulosic Materials

Microorganisms, 2021
Anaerobic fungi in the digestive tract of herbivores are one of the critical types of fiber-degrading microorganisms present in the rumen. They degrade lignocellulosic materials using unique rhizoid structures and a diverse range of fiber-degrading ...

Gene Order Phylogeny and the Evolution of Methanogens [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
Methanogens are a phylogenetically diverse group belonging to Euryarchaeota. Previously, phylogenetic approaches using large datasets revealed that methanogens can be grouped into two classes, "Class I" and "Class II".

Genomic Characterization of Methanomicrobiales Reveals Three Classes of Methanogens [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
BACKGROUND:Methanomicrobiales is the least studied order of methanogens. While these organisms appear to be more closely related to the Methanosarcinales in ribosomal-based phylogenetic analyses, they are metabolically more similar to Class I methanogens.

Genomic and transcriptomic insights into methanogenesis potential of novel methanogens from mangrove sediments

Microbiome, 2020
Background Methanogens are crucial to global methane budget and carbon cycling. Methanogens from the phylum Euryarchaeota are currently classified into one class and seven orders, including two novel methanogen taxa, Methanofastidiosa and ...

Review: Methanogens and methane production in the digestive systems of nonruminant farm animals

Animal, 2021
The greenhouse gases (GHGs) derived from agriculture include carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, and methane (CH4). Of these GHGs, CH4, in particular, constitutes a major component of the GHG emitted by the agricultural sector.

Detection and quantification of rumen methanogens using F420 autofluorescence profiling with spectral flow cytometry [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
Methanogenic archaea that reside in the rumen of sheep, cattle, and other ruminants generate 16% of global emissions of methane, a potent greenhouse gas. The majority of rumen methanogens belong to species that display readily observable autofluorescence

Diagnosing Anaerobic Digesters' Function and Performance: From Meta-Omics to Integrated Meta-Omics Analyses. [PDF]

Environ Microbiol Rep
The integration of multiple meta‐omics can tremendously improve our understanding of the structure, function and dynamics of the complex biological system in anaerobic digesters. Created in BioRender. https://BioRender.com/u9rj8ko. ABSTRACT Anaerobic digestion (AD) of organic wastes by microorganisms into biomethane contributes significantly towards ...

Isocyanides as a Chemical Tool for Identifying [Fe]-Hydrogenase-Dependent Methanogenesis. [PDF]

Chembiochem
In model methanogens, [Fe]‐hydrogenase (Hmd) substitutes nickel‐dependent hydrogenases under nickel‐limited conditions. We determined the inhibitory effects of the Hmd inhibitor, isocyanides, on methanogenesis in a cell extract and in a cell suspension.

Comparative Microbiome Analysis Reveals the Ecological Relationships Between Rumen Methanogens, Acetogens, and Their Hosts

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Ruminant methane, which is generated by methanogens through the consumption of hydrogen and supports the normal function of the rumen ecosystem, is a major source of greenhouse gases.
