Rethinking Termite Methane Emissions: Does the Mound Environment Matter? [PDF]
Glob Chang BiolMany factors can influence the amount of methane (CH4) that is released from a termite mound. In this study, we tested how the external and internal environment of a termite mound impacts CH4 emission using field measurements of mounds in a Northern Australia savanna.

Methanotrophic bacteria. [PDF]
Microbiological reviews, 1996 Methane-utilizing bacteria (methanotrophs) are a diverse group of gram-negative bacteria that are related to other members of the Proteobacteria. These bacteria are classified into three groups based on the pathways used for assimilation of formaldehyde, the major source of cell carbon, and other physiological and morphological features. The type I and

International Journal of Agronomy, 2022 The present study was initiated to determine whether isolates from soil and roots of paddy plants can affect the paddy plant’s growth and productivity. The study was conducted to answer the question, “Can paddy rice be grown when the NPK doze is reduced?”

Methanotrophs and copper [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2010 Methanotrophs, cells that consume methane (CH(4)) as their sole source of carbon and energy, play key roles in the global carbon cycle, including controlling anthropogenic and natural emissions of CH(4), the second-most important greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide.

Methanotrophs and methanotrophic activity in engineered landfill biocovers [PDF]
Waste Management, 2009 The dynamics and changes in the potential activity and community structure of methanotrophs in landfill covers, as a function of time and depth were investigated. A passive methane oxidation biocover (PMOB-1) was constructed in St-Nicéphore MSW Landfill (Quebec, Canada).

Facultative Methanotrophs Revisited [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 2005 Methane is one of the most important greenhouse gases, and its concentration in the atmosphere is increasing by approximately 1% per year (16). Methane-oxidizing bacteria, or methanotrophs, are a key group of bacteria involved in the global methane cycle and can be found in many environments.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Boreal lakes and ponds produce two-thirds of the total natural methane emissions above the latitude of 50° North. These lake emissions are regulated by methanotrophs which can oxidize up to 99% of the methane produced in the sediments and the water ...

Methane Removal from Air: Challenges and Opportunities
Methane, 2023 Driven by increasing greenhouse gas (GHG) concentrations in the atmosphere, extreme weather events have become more frequent and their impacts on human lives have become more severe. Therefore, the need for short-term GHG mitigations is urgent. Recently,

Comparative Analysis of Root Microbiomes of Rice Cultivars with High and Low Methane Emissions Reveals Differences in Abundance of Methanogenic Archaea and Putative Upstream Fermenters. [PDF]
, 2020 Rice cultivation worldwide accounts for ∼7 to 17% of global methane emissions. Methane cycling in rice paddies is a microbial process not only involving methane producers (methanogens) and methane metabolizers (methanotrophs) but also other microbial ...

Ultrastructure of methanotrophic yeasts [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1980 The cellular structure of two yeast strains capable of growth on methane was investigated by electron microscopy. Microbodies were observed in cells of Sporobolomyces roseus strain Y and Rhodotorula glutinis strain CY when grown on methane but rarely when grown on glucose.
