Biogeography of wetland rice methanotrophs
Environmental Microbiology, 2010Summary We focused on the functional guild of methane oxidizing bacteria (MOB) as model organisms to get deeper insights into microbial biogeography. The pmoA gene was used as a functional and phylogenetic marker for MOB in two approaches: (i) a pmoA

Methylocella: a gourmand among methanotrophs
Trends in Microbiology, 2014A recent article in Nature describes the ability of Methylocella silvestris to grow simultaneously on methane and longer chain alkanes, something never before observed in the microbial world. It adds to a growing list of unique metabolic traits that distinguish Methylocella from any other bacterium.

Methanotrophs and Methanogens in Masonry
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1998ABSTRACT Methanotrophs were present in 48 of 225 stone samples which were removed from 19 historical buildings in Germany and Italy. The average cell number of methanotrophs was 20 CFU per g of stone, and their activities ranged between 11 and 42 pmol of CH 4 g of stone −1 day

Generation of Products by Methanotrophs
1982It has been recognized for many years that obligate methanotrophs, although requiring C1 compounds for growth, are nevertheless capable of effecting the partial oxidation of several simple methane analogues (short chain alkanes and alkenes) to products which accumulate extracellularly (64).

Methanotrophe: Treibhausgasvernichtende Mikroben
BIOspektrum, 2011Methanotrophe Mikroben vermindern die Freisetzung des Treibhausgases Methan aus Feuchtgebieten und marinen Lagerstatten und sind in Wald-, Grunland- und Wustenboden die biologische Senke fur atmospharisches Methan.

Biology of extremophilic and extremotolerant methanotrophs
Archives of Microbiology, 2001This review summarizes recent findings on the biology of obligate methanotrophic bacteria living in various extreme environments. By using molecular ecology techniques, it has become clear that obligate methanotrophs are ubiquitous in nature and well adapted to high or low temperature, pH and salinity.

Environmental Applications of Methanotrophs
2019Methanotrophs are microorganisms that are able to utilize methane as the electron donor and carbon source. For long, methanotrophs have been widely studied for their application in environmental biotechnology, due mainly to the exclusive ownership of the unique enzymes that mediate oxidation of methane to methanol, namely the particulate methane ...

Molecular Ecology of Methanotrophs
1996Methane oxidizing bacteria (methanotrophs) are unique in growing with methane as their sole source of carbon and energy. They do not grow on multi-carbon compounds, but some can also utilize methanol as a growth substrate. These unique organisms appear to be ubiquitous in the natural environment and have been isolated from a wide variety of soils ...

Ecologically engineering methanotrophic photogranules
2022With the objective to remove dissolved methane from effluents of anaerobic bioreactors, we ecologically engineered non-methanotrophic photogranules to perform methane oxidation. The resulting methanotrophic photogranules stably removed dissolved CH4 in a lab-scale photobioreactor at more than 80%, only using photosynthetically in-situ produced oxygen ...
