Selection and application of methanol-utilizing bacteria from tomato leaves for biocontrol of gray mold [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyGray mold, caused by Botrytis cinerea, is a significant threat to tomato production. Traditional chemical control methods have become increasingly ineffective because of the development of resistance.

Linking microbes to in situ methane oxidation rates in a eutrophic freshwater lake [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyIntroductionAerobic methanotrophs and non-methanotrophic methylotrophs drive methane cycling in oxic freshwater lakes. Most knowledge about biological aerobic methane oxidation (MOx) comes from ex situ rate experiments, laboratory cultures, and static ...

Expanding on the ability of trivalent actinides to support microbial alcohol metabolism in evolved methylotrophic bacterium [PDF]
Communications ChemistryThe 4 f elements, known as the lanthanides, have only recently been recognized as biologically essential metals. These elements can be found in the active site of certain alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) enzymes, which are used by methylotrophic bacteria to ...

Different lanthanide elements induce strong gene expression changes in a lanthanide-accumulating methylotroph [PDF]
Microbiology Spectrum, 2023 Lanthanides (Ln) are the most recently described life metals and are central to methylotrophy (type of metabolism in which organic substrates without carbon-carbon bonds serve as carbon and energy source) in diverse taxa.

Expanding the C-S-R framework to incorporate microbial interactions: evidence from methane-consuming communities [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyMicrobial interactions are critical in shaping community assembly and ecosystem functioning, yet classical ecological frameworks such as Grime’s Competitor-Stress Tolerator-Ruderal (C-S-R) model primarily emphasize individual traits, overlooking ...
