Biological and physical controls of methane uptake in grassland soils across the US Great Plains

Ecosphere
The grassland biome is an important sink for atmospheric methane (CH4), a major greenhouse gas. There is considerable uncertainty in the grassland CH4 sink capacity due to diverse environmental gradients in which grasslands occur, and many environmental ...

Integrative Genome-Scale Metabolic Modeling Reveals Versatile Metabolic Strategies for Methane Utilization in Methylomicrobium album BG8

mSystems, 2022
Methylomicrobium album BG8 is an aerobic methanotrophic bacterium with promising features as a microbial cell factory for the conversion of methane to value-added chemicals. However, the lack of a genome-scale metabolic model (GEM) of M.

The spread of non‐native species

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1197-1234, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

Phylogenomic Analysis of the Gammaproteobacterial Methanotrophs (Order Methylococcales) Calls for the Reclassification of Members at the Genus and Species Levels

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
The order Methylococcales constitutes the methanotrophs – bacteria that can metabolize methane, a potent greenhouse gas, as their sole source of energy.

Recent trends of biotechnological production of polyhydroxyalkanoates from C1 carbon sources

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Growing concerns over the use of limited fossil fuels and their negative impacts on the ecological niches have facilitated the exploration of alternative routes. The use of conventional plastic material also negatively impacts the environment.

Fully Organic Agroforestry Practices in Rice Cultivation: Effects on Soil Bacterial Microbiota, Soil Health and Grain Quality

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Sustainable practices are increasingly recognised for benefiting soil biodiversity, health, and overall grain quality. This study examined a unique rice agroecosystem adopting fully organic practices and agroforestry through a seasonal characterisation of soil bacterial microbiota and physicochemical parameters.

Transcriptomic profiling of Methylococcus capsulatus (Bath) during growth with two different methane monooxygenases

MicrobiologyOpen, 2016
Methylococcus capsulatus (Bath) is a methanotroph that possesses both a membrane‐embedded (pMMO) and a soluble methane monooxygenase (sMMO). The expression of these two MMO's is tightly controlled by the availability of copper in the growth medium, but ...

Responses of methanogenic and methanotrophic communities to elevated atmospheric CO2 and temperature in a paddy field

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Although climate change is predicted to affect methane (CH4) emissions in paddy soil, the dynamics of methanogens and methanotrophs in paddy fields under climate change have not yet been fully investigated.

The Elbe Estuary Microbiome Shifts With Salinity and Discharge and Depends on Fresh Organic Matter and Nutrient Availability

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
Microbial diversity within the Elbe Estuary was found to be more strongly governed by seasonal variability, salinity, and discharge than by spatial heterogeneity. Oligohaline regions sustain high diversity, while nutrient and redox conditions drive functional shifts.

Ammonia Oxidation and Nitrite Reduction in the Verrucomicrobial Methanotroph Methylacidiphilum fumariolicum SolV

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
The Solfatara volcano near Naples (Italy), the origin of the recently discovered verrucomicrobial methanotroph Methylacidiphilum fumariolicum SolV was shown to contain ammonium (NH4+) at concentrations ranging from 1 to 28 mM.
