Methanotrophs and methanotrophic activity in engineered landfill biocovers [PDF]
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]
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.

Ultrastructure of methanotrophic yeasts [PDF]
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.

Methanotrophs, which help regulate atmospheric levels of methane, are active in diverse natural and man-made environments. This range of habitats and the feast-famine cycles seen by many environmental methanotrophs suggest that methanotrophs dynamically ...

Methane-oxidizing bacteria (methanotrophs) play an ecological role in methane and nitrogen fluxes because they are capable of nitrogen fixation and methane oxidation, as indicated by genomic and cultivation-dependent studies.

The pH-based ecological coherence of active canonical methanotrophs in paddy soils [PDF]
Soil pH is considered one of the main determinants of the assembly of globally distributed microorganisms that catalyze the biogeochemical cycles of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N).

Alpha- and Gammaproteobacterial Methanotrophs Codominate the Active Methane-Oxidizing Communities in an Acidic Boreal Peat Bog [PDF]
The objective of this study was to characterize metabolically active, aerobic methanotrophs in an ombrotrophic peatland in the Marcell Experimental Forest, Minnesota, USA.

Bacteriophages of methanotrophic bacteria [PDF]
Bacteriophages of methanotrophic bacteria have been found in 16 out of 88 studied samples (underground waters, pond water, soil, gas and oil installation waters, fermentor cultural fluids, bacterial paste, and rumen of cattle) taken in different geographic zones of the Soviet Union.

Cultivation of Important Methanotrophs From Indian Rice Fields
Methanotrophs are aerobic to micro-aerophilic bacteria, which oxidize and utilize methane, the second most important greenhouse gas. The community structure of the methanotrophs in rice fields worldwide has been studied mainly using culture-independent ...

A temperate river estuary is a sink for methanotrophs adapted to extremes of pH, temperature and salinity [PDF]
River Tyne (UK) estuarine sediments harbour a genetically and functionally diverse community of methane-oxidizing bacteria (methanotrophs), the composition and activity of which were directly influenced by imposed environmental conditions (pH, salinity ...
