Radial oxygen loss, rhizospheric methane oxidation and methane emissions from rice roots
Longitudinal variation in rice (Oryza sativa) root traits affecting the bidirectional diffusion of O2 and CH4. Summary Methane (CH4) produced in flooded paddy soils is emitted by passive diffusion, by ebullition and by diffusion through the rice (Oryza sativa) plant.

Phylogenetic analysis of methanogens from the bovine rumen [PDF]
Background Interest in methanogens from ruminants has resulted from the role of methane in global warming and from the fact that cattle typically lose 6 % of ingested energy as methane.

Diversity and Functional Analysis of the FeMo-Cofactor Maturase NifB
One of the main hurdles to engineer nitrogenase in a non-diazotrophic host is achieving NifB activity. NifB is an extremely unstable and oxygen sensitive protein that catalyzes a low-potential SAM-radical dependent reaction.

This graphical abstract presents gut microbial cross‐feeding through a Mechanism–Technology–Application framework. It summarizes major resource‐transfer modes, the experimental and computational tools used to establish causality, and potential interventions involving dietary substrates, live biotherapeutic products, and engineered microbes.

Biochemical Evidence for formate transfer in syntrophic propionate oxidizing cocultures of Syntrophobacter fumaroxidans and Methanospirillum hungatei [PDF]
The hydrogenase and formate dehydrogenase levels in Syntrophobacter fumaroxidans and Methanospirillum hungatei were studied in syntrophic propionate-oxidizing cultures and compared to the levels in axenic cultures of both organisms.

Methanogens dominate methanotrophs and act as a methane source in aquaculture pond sediments
Aquaculture pond sediments act as hotspots for methane (CH4) emissions; however, knowledge gaps on the regulation of microorganisms hinder our further understanding of methane dynamics in aquaculture pond sediment.

CO2 conversion to methane and biomass in obligate methylotrophic methanogens in marine sediments
Methyl substrates are important compounds for methanogenesis in marine sediments but diversity and carbon utilization by methylotrophic methanogenic archaea have not been clarified.

Patterns and Drivers of Mercury Accumulation in Croplands, a Meta‐Analysis
Abstract Mercury (Hg) is a potent neurotoxin that poses risks to human and environmental health, particularly in regions influenced by anthropogenic Hg emissions. Although Hg emissions have declined across North America and Europe following regulatory controls and phase‐outs, emissions remain elevated in some regions due to activities such as artisanal
