Genomic insights into methanotrophy: the complete genome sequence of Methylococcus capsulatus (Bath).

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2004
Methanotrophs are ubiquitous bacteria that can use the greenhouse gas methane as a sole carbon and energy source for growth, thus playing major roles in global carbon cycles, and in particular, substantially reducing emissions of biologically generated ...

Methane stimulates massive nitrogen loss from freshwater reservoirs in India

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
The fate of anthropogenic nitrogen (N) remains understudied in South Asian water bodies despite its impact on water chemistry and quality. Here the authors show that N loss in Indian freshwater reservoirs is tightly coupled to methanotrophy, which has ...

Methanotrophy potential versus methane supply by pore water diffusion in peatlands [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2009
Low affinity methanotrophic bacteria consume a significant quantity of methane in wetland soils in the vicinity of plant roots and at the oxic-anoxic interface.

Methanotrophy in Movile Cave [PDF]

open access: yes
Movile Cave is an isolated cave ecosystem that receives no input of photosynthetically fixed carbon. Instead, carbon is primarily fixed through light- independent bacterial processes such as chemolithoautotrophy and methanotrophy. Distinctive microbial floating mats appear at the surface of groundwater flooding the cave, at the redox interface between ...

Methanotrophy Under Extreme Alkalinity in a Serpentinizing System

open access: yes
Abstract Serpentinization produces hyperalkaline, H 2 - and CH 4 -rich fluids that support microbial life in extreme conditions and serve as analogs for ocean worlds such as Enceladus.
