Comprehensive Comparative Genomics and Phenotyping of Methylobacterium Species
The pink-pigmented facultative methylotrophs (PPFMs), a major bacterial group found in the plant phyllosphere, comprise two genera: Methylobacterium and Methylorubrum. They have been separated into three major clades: A, B (Methylorubrum), and C.

The expanded diversity of methylophilaceae from Lake Washington through cultivation and genomic sequencing of novel ecotypes. [PDF]
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.

Methylotroph Infections and Chronic Granulomatous Disease
Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a primary immunodeficiency caused by a defect in production of phagocyte-derived reactive oxygen species, which leads to recurrent infections with a characteristic group of pathogens not previously known to include ...

Novel methylotrophic bacteria isolated from the River Thames (London, UK) [PDF]
Enrichment and elective culture for methylotrophs from sediment of the River Thames in central London yielded a diversity of pure cultures representing several genera of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, which were mainly of organisms not ...

A Novel Moderately Thermophilic Facultative Methylotroph within the Class Alphaproteobacteria
Methylotrophic bacteria (non-methanotrophic methanol oxidizers) consuming reduced carbon compounds containing no carbon–carbon bonds as their sole carbon and energy source have been found in a great variety of environments.

Substrate-specific clades of active marine methylotrophs associated with a phytoplankton bloom in a temperate coastal environment [PDF]
Marine microorganisms that consume one-carbon (C1) compounds are poorly described, despite their impact on global climate via an influence on aquatic and atmospheric chemistry.
