Resilience of aerobic methanotrophs in soils; spotlight on the methane sink under agriculture

FEMS Microbiology Ecology
Aerobic methanotrophs are a specialized microbial group, catalyzing the oxidation of methane. Disturbance-induced loss of methanotroph diversity/abundance, thus results in the loss of this biological methane sink.

No evidence of light inhibition on aerobic methanotrophs in coastal sediments using eDNA and eRNA

Environmental DNA, 2023
It is estimated that up to half of global methane (CH4) emissions are derived from microbial processes in aquatic ecosystems. However, it is not fully understood which factors explain the spatial and temporal variability of these emissions.

Multiple Mechanisms for Copper Uptake by Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b in the Presence of Heterologous Methanobactin

mBio, 2022
Methanotrophs require copper for their activity as it plays a critical role in the oxidation of methane to methanol. To sequester copper, some methanotrophs secrete a copper-binding compound termed methanobactin (MB).

Niche differentiation in nitrogen metabolism among methanotrophs within an operational taxonomic unit [PDF]

, 2014
Background: The currently accepted thesis on nitrogenous fertilizer additions on methane oxidation activity assumes niche partitioning among methanotrophic species, with activity responses to changes in nitrogen content being dependent on the in situ ...

Polyhydroxyalkanoate Production by Methanotrophs: Recent Updates and Perspectives

Polymers
Methanotrophs are bacteria that consume methane (CH4) as their sole carbon and energy source. These microorganisms play a crucial role in the carbon cycle by metabolizing CH4 (the greenhouse gas), into cellular biomass and carbon dioxide (CO2 ...

Vertical stratification patterns of methanotrophs and their genetic controllers in water columns of oxygen-stratified boreal lakes

FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2020
The vertical structuring of methanotrophic communities and its genetic controllers remain understudied in the water columns of oxygen-stratified lakes.

Cultivation of Diverse Type I and Type II Methanotrophs from Tropical Wetlands in India, Including Rare Taxa (Methylocucumis and Methylolobus)

Methane
Wetlands are the most important natural sources of methane. Studies on the distribution and diversity of methanotrophs, especially in tropical wetlands, are limited.

High resolution depth distribution of Bacteria, Archaea, methanotrophs, and methanogens in the bulk and rhizosphere soils of a flooded rice paddy

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
The communities and abundances of methanotrophs and methanogens, along with the oxygen, methane, and total organic carbon (TOC) concentrations, were investigated along a depth gradient in a flooded rice paddy.

Niche Differentiation of Active Methane-Oxidizing Bacteria in Estuarine Mangrove Forest Soils in Taiwan

Microorganisms, 2020
Mangrove forests are one of the important ecosystems in tropical coasts because of their high primary production, which they sustain by sequestering a substantial amount of CO2 into plant biomass.

The spread of non‐native species

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
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.
