Environmental Preferences and Functional Variations of Methanotrophs in Northeast Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau Wetlands

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
Significant environmental preference between type I and type II methanotrophs is regulated by soil ion concentration (pH and electrical conductivity) in wetlands. Type II methanotrophs (Methylocystis, etc.) contributes more to soil methane oxidation than type I methanotrophs.

Soil Properties Interacting With Microbial Metagenome in Decreasing CH4 Emission From Seasonally Flooded Marshland Following Different Stages of Afforestation

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Wetlands are the largest natural source of terrestrial CH4 emissions. Afforestation can enhance soil CH4 oxidation and decrease methanogenesis, yet the driving mechanisms leading to these effects remain unclear.

Rethinking Termite Methane Emissions: Does the Mound Environment Matter?

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 4, April 2026.
Many 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.

Increased CH4 Oxidation in Arctic Tundra Ecosystems Caused by Vegetation‐Mediated Soil Drying

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2026.
In a warmer Arctic, vegetation changes can play a critical role in methane dynamics. Our results indicate that taller vegetation, shifts in species composition, and warmer air temperatures enhance soil aeration by increasing evapotranspiration, thereby promoting methane oxidation in surface soils.

Novel methanotroph diversity evidenced by molecular characterization of particulate methane monooxygenase A (pmoA) genes in a biogas reactor

Microbiological Research, 2009
The present study for the first time investigated the diversity of methanotrophs in a biogas reactor running on cattle dung by sequence analysis of the "functional" gene, particulate methane monooxygenase A (pmoA). Community structure was determined by operational taxonomic unit (OTU) phylogenetic analyses of 396 clones belonging to pmoA library.

Land Cover and Hydrology Regulate Riverine Carbon Emissions From Subarctic Catchments

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Streams transport carbon (C) and nutrients across the terrestrial‐aquatic interface and are significant sources of methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) to the atmosphere. Climate‐induced changes in vegetation and hydrology increase the export of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) from terrestrial to aquatic ecosystems, but the impact of these ...

Soil CO2 emission and soil attributes associated with the microbiota of a sugarcane area in southern Brazil

Scientific Reports, 2021
The spatial structure of soil CO2 emission (FCO2) and soil attributes are affected by different factors in a highly complex way. In this context, this study aimed to characterize the spatial variability patterns of FCO2 and soil physical, chemical, and ...

Impact of Copper on the Physiology and Transcriptome of Methylosinus Trichosporium OB3b Grown on Either Methane or Methanol

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 1, January 2026.
Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b can grow on methanol in the absence but not presence of copper due: (1) overgeneration of reducing power from methanol oxidation; (2) formate accumulation leading to acidification of the growth medium and inactivation of formate dehydrogenase; and (3) lack of expression of potential oxidative stress defence genes ...

Visible-Light Photochromic Properties of an Inorganic-Organic Phosphomolybdic Acid/Polythiophene Hybrid Thin Film

Chemistry
A visible-light photochromic hybrid film was synthesized based on combining phosphomolybdic acid (PMoA) with the polythiophene (PTh) matrix. The microstructure and photochromic properties of the materials were analyzed through atomic force microscopy ...

Aquatic plant surface as a niche for methanotrophs

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
This study investigated the potential local CH4 sink in various plant parts as a boundary environment of CH4 emission and consumption. By comparing CH4 consumption activities in cultures inoculated with parts from 39 plant species, we observed ...
