Microbial interaction networks as climate thermometers: redefining temperature sensitivity of aerobic methanotrophy in freshwater ecosystems [PDF]

npj Biodiversity
Methane-oxidizing bacteria (MOB) serve as critical biogeochemical gatekeepers, mitigating methane (CH4) emissions from freshwaters through aerobic methanotrophy.

A sterol reductase responsible for the unusual 8(14)-unsaturation in bacterial sterol production and degradation [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology
Sterols are a class of lipids that play a crucial role in human health through their essential physiological roles and as a point of interaction between commensal and pathogenic bacteria.

Methylococcaceae are the dominant active aerobic methanotrophs in a Chinese tidal marsh

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2018
Although coastal marshes are net carbon sinks, they are net methane sources. Aerobic methanotrophs in coastal marsh soils are important methane consumers, but their activity and populations are poorly characterized. DNA stable-isotope probing followed by sequencing was used to determine how active methanotrophic populations differed in the main ...

Methane cycling microorganisms drive seasonal variation of methane emission in mangrove ecosystems [PDF]

Environmental Microbiome
Coastal mangroves are one of the significant hotspots of natural methane (CH4) emissions, yet the seasonal dynamics of these emissions and the underlying microbial drivers remain poorly understood.

Thermophilic methane oxidation is widespread in Aotearoa-New Zealand geothermal fields [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Geothermal areas represent substantial point sources for greenhouse gas emissions such as methane. While it is known that methanotrophic microorganisms act as a biofilter, decreasing the efflux of methane in most soils to the atmosphere, the diversity ...

Revised Taxonomy of the Methanotrophs: Description of Methylobacter gen. nov., Emendation of Methylococcus, Validation of Methylosinus and Methylocystis Species, and a Proposal that the Family Methylococcaceae Includes Only the Group I Methanotrophs [PDF]

International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1993
Numerical taxonomic, DNA-DNA hybridization, and phospholipid fatty acid composition analyses were performed on an extensive range of methanotrophic strains, including reference strains and environmental isolates obtained from sites throughout eastern Australia.

The methane-oxidizing microbial communities of three maar lakes in tropical monsoon Asia [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology
Methane-oxidizing bacteria (MOB) is a group of planktonic microorganisms that use methane as their primary source of cellular energy. For tropical lakes in monsoon Asia, there is currently a knowledge gap on MOB community diversity and the factors ...

Methane-oxidizing bacterial community dynamics in sub-alpine forest soil [PDF]

Microbiology Spectrum
Microbial activities in sub-alpine forest soil influence global cycling of the potent greenhouse gas methane. Understanding the dynamics of methane-oxidizing bacterial communities, particularly the roles of potentially active versus total microbial ...

Electron acceptors modulate methane oxidation and active methanotrophic communities in anoxic urban wetland sediments [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
Urban wetlands, although often overlooked, are hotspots for CH4 cycling. However, the understanding of anaerobic CH4 oxidation and microbial responses to different electron acceptors in urban wetlands remains limited. Here, we employed DNA-stable isotope

Testing the efficacy of surface swab sampling to determine postmortem submersion interval (PMSI), using the microbiome colonization of skeletal remains. [PDF]

J Forensic Sci
Abstract Postmortem interval (PMI) estimation contributes valuable information in the medicolegal investigation of decomposed human remains, and estimating the postmortem submersion interval (PMSI) can specifically aid investigations involving victims discovered in aquatic environments.
