Rethinking Termite Methane Emissions: Does the Mound Environment Matter? [PDF]
Glob Chang BiolMany factors can influence the amount of methane (CH4) that is released from a termite mound. In this study, we tested how the external and internal environment of a termite mound impacts CH4 emission using field measurements of mounds in a Northern Australia savanna.

Detection of methanotrophs with highly divergent pmoA genes from Arctic soils [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2002 Tundra soil samples from the Canadian Arctic community, Kuujjuaq, were analyzed for the presence of the soluble (sMMO) and particulate (pMMO) methane monooxygenase genes. Total genomic DNA extracted from these soils was used as template for PCR using sMMO- and pMMO-specific primers, mmoX1-mmoX2 and A189-A682, respectively.

Planktonic and sediment-associated aerobic methanotrophs in two seep systems along the North American margin [PDF]
, 2008 Methane vents are of significant geochemical and ecological importance. Notable progress has been made towards understanding anaerobic methane oxidation in marine sediments, however, the diversity and distribution of aerobic methanotrophs in the water ...

Comparative Analysis of Root Microbiomes of Rice Cultivars with High and Low Methane Emissions Reveals Differences in Abundance of Methanogenic Archaea and Putative Upstream Fermenters. [PDF]
, 2020 Rice cultivation worldwide accounts for ∼7 to 17% of global methane emissions. Methane cycling in rice paddies is a microbial process not only involving methane producers (methanogens) and methane metabolizers (methanotrophs) but also other microbial ...

The particulate methane monooxygenase gene pmoA and its use as a functional gene probe for methanotrophs [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2006 The particulate methane monooxygenase gene pmoA, encoding the 27 kDa polypeptide of the membrane-bound particulate methane monooxygenase, was amplified by PCR from DNA isolated from a blanket peat bog and from enrichment cultures established, from the same environment, using methane as sole carbon and energy source.
