Trace-gas metabolic versatility of the facultative methanotroph Methylocella silvestris [PDF]
The climate-active gas methane is generated both by biological processes and by thermogenic decomposition of fossil organic material, which forms methane and short-chain alkanes, principally ethane, propane and butane1, 2. In addition to natural sources,

Spruce Budworm Defoliation Influences Greenhouse Gas Concentrations in Streams
Abstract One of the most significant natural disturbances in the Canadian boreal and hemiboreal forest is tree defoliation by eastern spruce budworm (SBW), which may increase nutrient and carbon inputs to catchment soils, and in runoff. Closely connected to catchments, headwater streams are known to be significant emitters of greenhouse gases (GHGs ...

Genomic Insights Into the Acid Adaptation of Novel Methanotrophs Enriched From Acidic Forest Soils
Soil acidification is accelerated by anthropogenic and agricultural activities, which could significantly affect global methane cycles. However, detailed knowledge of the genomic properties of methanotrophs adapted to acidic soils remains scarce.

This mini‐review synthesises evidence on the taxonomic patterns of airborne microorganisms and the selective pressures they face. We highlight key conserved physiological traits, such as DNA repair and desiccation tolerance, which enable stress‐tolerant members to survive and suggest their potential for activity within the atmospheric environment ...

Abstract Methane (CH4) emissions from freshwater ecosystems are significant but rarely quantified in vegetated zones. We assessed the influence of five macrophyte species that root in the sediment differing in growth form and root biomass on CH4 emissions and sediment gas storage.

Application of COMPOCHIP Microarray to Investigate the Bacterial Communities of Different Composts [PDF]
A microarray spotted with 369 different 16S rRNA gene probes specific to microorganisms involved in the degradation process of organic waste during composting was developed. The microarray was tested with pure cultures, and of the 30,258 individual probe-

Large methane oxidation across an oxygen gradient in Baltic Sea deep waters
Abstract Robust estimations of methane (CH4) oxidation in marginal seas remain elusive, making CH4 budgets particularly uncertain. Here, we investigate the CH4 benthic source and bottom layer oxidation across the entire Baltic Sea using concentration and stable isotope (δ13C‐CH4) profiles along oxygen and salinity gradients.

Abstract Tidal wetland reclamation is a widespread anthropogenic disturbance that alters sediment biogeochemistry; however, its impacts on biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) and diazotrophic communities remain poorly understood. Here, we integrated 15N isotope labeling, metagenomic sequencing, and network analysis across a bare tidal flat (B), moderate‐

Draft Genome Sequences of Two Gammaproteobacterial Methanotrophs Isolated from Rice Ecosystems [PDF]
The genomes of the aerobic methanotrophs “Methyloterricola oryzae” strain 73aT and Methylomagnum ishizawai strain 175 were sequenced. Both strains were isolated from rice plants.

Environmental impacts on the diversity of methane-cycling microbes and their resultant function
Methane is an important anthropogenic greenhouse gas that is produced and consumed in soils by microorganisms responding to micro-environmental conditions.
