Genetics and molecular biology of methanotrophs [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1992 Over the last 20 years or so, the obligate methane-oxidizing bacteria (methanotrophs) have attracted considerable interest. As they grow on a relatively cheap and abundant carbon source, they appeared ideal organisms for the production of bulk chemicals, single-cell protein and for use in biotransformations.

Stress resistance and C1 metabolism involved in plant colonization of a methanotroph Methylosinus sp. B4S. [PDF]
, 2013 Methanotrophs are widespread and have been isolated from various environments including the phyllosphere. In this study, we characterized the plant colonization by Methylosinus sp. B4S, an α-proteobacterial methanotroph isolated from plant leaf.

Methanotroph Ecology, Environmental Distribution and Functioning
, 2019 The dynamics of methane concentrations in the atmosphere in recent decades has demonstrated many anomalies which are poorly understood. The only biological way of degrading this potent greenhouse gas is by microbial oxidation. Aerobic methanotrophic bacteriaAerobic methanotrophic bacteria(MB) play an important role in many ecosystems worldwide ...

Nitrous oxide respiration in acidophilic methanotrophs
Nature CommunicationsAbstract Aerobic methanotrophic bacteria are considered strict aerobes but are often highly abundant in hypoxic and even anoxic environments. Despite possessing denitrification genes, it remains to be verified whether denitrification contributes to their growth.
