The Expanded Diversity of Methylophilaceae from Lake Washington through Cultivation and Genomic Sequencing of Novel Ecotypes [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 We describe five novel Methylophilaceae ecotypes from a single ecological niche in Lake Washington, USA, and compare them to three previously described ecotypes, in terms of their phenotype and genome sequence divergence.

Natural Selection in Synthetic Communities Highlights the Roles of Methylococcaceae and Methylophilaceae and Suggests Differential Roles for Alternative Methanol Dehydrogenases in Methane Consumption [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 We describe experiments that follow species dynamics and gene expression patterns in synthetic bacterial communities including species that compete for the single carbon substrate supplied, methane, and species unable to consume methane, which could only

Soil bacterial community composition in rice-turtle coculture systems with different planting years [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 The rice-turtle coculture system is the most special rice-fish integrated farming system. In this study, we selected four paddy fields, including a rice monoculture paddy and three rice-turtle paddies with different planting years, to investigate the ...

A Novel Freshwater to Marine Evolutionary Transition Revealed within Methylophilaceae Bacteria from the Arctic Ocean [PDF]
mBio, 2021 Global warming is profoundly influencing the Arctic Ocean. Rapid ice melt and increased freshwater input is increasing ocean stratification, driving shifts in nutrient availability and the primary production that supports marine food webs.

Metagenomic Insight into Environmentally Challenged Methane-Fed Microbial Communities
Microorganisms, 2020 In this study, we aimed to investigate, through high-resolution metagenomics and metatranscriptomics, the composition and the trajectories of microbial communities originating from a natural sample, fed exclusively with methane, over 14 weeks of ...

Microbiota of the Rearing Water of Penaeus stylirostris Larvae Influenced by Lagoon Seawater and Specific Key Microbial Lineages of Larval Stage and Survival [PDF]
Microbiology Spectrum, 2022 Aquacultured animals are reared in water, where they interact with microorganisms which can be involved in their development, immunity, and disease. It is therefore interesting to study the rearing water microbiota, especially in the hatcheries of the ...

Parasitic connections: a patescibacterial epibiont, its methylotrophic gammaproteobacterial host, and their phages [PDF]
mBioPatescibacteriota form a very diverse and widely distributed phylum of small bacteria inferred to have an episymbiotic lifestyle. However, the prevalence of this lifestyle within the phylum and its host specificity remain poorly known due to the scarcity

Seasonal dynamics of bacterial community structure and function in the surf zone seawater of a recreational beach in Ostend, Belgium. [PDF]
Environ Microbiol RepThis study involved year‐long, weekly monitoring of bacterial community composition and predicted functions in the surf zone seawater of a recreational beach in Ostend, Belgium, using full‐length 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The data were then correlated with environmental factors to identify potential drivers.
