Diversity and community assembly mechanisms of soil methanotrophs in typical ecotypes of the Mitika alpine wetland in northern Xizang [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology
The Mitika alpine wetland is a globally important wetland on the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau, which serves as a vital carbon reservoir on Earth’s surface.

First isolation of a methanotrophic Mycobacterium reveals ammonia- and pH-tolerant methane oxidation [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
Methanotrophs facilitate a key step in the global carbon cycle—oxidation of natural and anthropogenic methane—and comprehension of their physiology is critical in unraveling the ecology revolving around microbial methane sinks.

Expansion of aerobic methanotrophy to the phylum of Actinomycetota and its environmental implications [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
For over a century, taxonomically validated pure cultures of aerobic methanotrophs belonged to Pseudomonadota, or since 2007, Verrucomicrobiota. A recent article published in Applied and Environmental Microbiology by H. Kambara, T.

Diverse bacteriohemerythrin genes of Methylomonas denitrificans FJG1 provide insight into the survival and activity of methanotrophs in low oxygen ecosystems [PDF]

mBio
Proteobacterial methanotrophs are dependent on the oxidation of methane for ATP production and assimilation of carbon into biomass. Interestingly, some types of gammaproteobacterial methanotrophs thrive in oxygen-depleted zones of lakes and other aquatic

Novel facultative Methylocella strains are active methane consumers at terrestrial natural gas seeps [PDF]

Microbiome, 2019
Background Natural gas seeps contribute to global climate change by releasing substantial amounts of the potent greenhouse gas methane and other climate-active gases including ethane and propane to the atmosphere. However, methanotrophs, bacteria capable

Investigation on the aerobic methanotrophic community and the dominant taxon Methylomarinum in seagrass ecosystem [PDF]

Environmental Microbiome
Background Methanotrophs are a key biological methane sink, and aerobic methanotrophs critically reduce wetland methane emissions under global climate change.

Candidatus Methylumidiphilus Drives Peaks in Methanotrophic Relative Abundance in Stratified Lakes and Ponds Across Northern Landscapes

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 ...

How methanotrophs respond to pH: A review of ecophysiology

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Varying pH globally affects terrestrial microbial communities and biochemical cycles. Methanotrophs effectively mitigate methane fluxes in terrestrial habitats. Many methanotrophs grow optimally at neutral pH.

Diversity and Composition of Methanotroph Communities in Caves

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
Methane oxidizing microorganisms (methanotrophs) are ubiquitous in the environment and represent a major sink for the greenhouse gas methane (CH4).

Exploring the Potential of Methanotrophs for Plant Growth Promotion in Rice Agriculture

Methane, 2023
Rice fields are one of the important anthropogenic sources of methane emissions. Methanotrophs dwelling near the rice roots and at the oxic–anoxic interface of paddy fields can oxidize a large fraction of the generated methane and are therefore ...
