Facultative methanotrophs are abundant at terrestrial natural gas seeps [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Natural gas contains methane and the gaseous alkanes ethane, propane and butane, which collectively influence atmospheric chemistry and cause global warming.

Characterization of C ₁ -Metabolizing Prokaryotic Communities in Methane Seep Habitats at the Kuroshima Knoll, Southern Ryukyu Arc, by Analyzing pmoA , mmoX , mxaF , mcrA , and 16S rRNA Genes [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2004
ABSTRACT Samples from three submerged sites (MC, a core obtained in the methane seep area; MR, a reference core obtained at a distance from the methane seep; and HC, a gas-bubbling carbonate sample) at the Kuroshima Knoll in the southern Ryuku arc were analyzed to gain insight into the organisms present and the processes involved

Patterns and geographical drivers for the abundance of CO2-assimilating bacteria, methanotrophs and CO-oxidizing bacteria in agricultural soils across eastern China

Journal of Integrative Agriculture
Microorganisms carrying cbbL, pmoA and coxL genes play crucial roles in regulating soil-atmosphere exchanges of carbon trace gases (CO2, CH4, and CO). However, the geographical distribution patterns of these functional genes in agricultural ecosystems ...

Recurrence and frequency of disturbance have cumulative effect on methanotrophic activity, abundance, and community structure.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Alternate prolonged drought and heavy rainfall is predicted to intensify with global warming. Desiccation-rewetting events alter the soil quality and nutrient concentrations which drive microbial-mediated processes, including methane oxidation, a key ...

The methanol dehydrogenase gene, mxaF, as a functional and phylogenetic marker for proteobacterial methanotrophs in natural environments. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
The mxaF gene, coding for the large (α) subunit of methanol dehydrogenase, is highly conserved among distantly related methylotrophic species in the Alpha-, Beta- and Gammaproteobacteria.

Origin and temporal variability of unusually low δ13C-DOC values in two High Arctic catchments [PDF]

, 2016
The stable carbon isotopic composition of dissolved organic matter (δ13C-DOC) reveals information about its source and extent of biological processing. Here we report the lowest δ13C-DOC values (−43.8‰) measured to date in surface waters.

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 ...

Effects of Fallow Season Water and Straw Management on Methane Emissions and Associated Microorganisms

Agronomy
The effects of fallow season water and straw management on methane (CH4) emissions during the fallow season and the subsequent rice-growing season are rarely reported, and the underlying microbial mechanisms remain unclear.

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 ...
