Methane-oxidizing bacteria are characterized by their capability to grow on methane as sole
source of carbon and energy. Cultivation-dependent and-independent methods have …

Research on methanogenic Archaea has experienced a revival, with many novel lineages of
methanogens recently being found through cultivation and suggested via metagenomics …

Microdiversity can lead to different ecotypes within the same species. These are assumed to
provide stability in time and space to those species. However, the role of microdiversity in …

Increasing evidence from sequence data from various environments, including the human
gut, suggests the existence of a previously unknown putative seventh order of methanogens …

Anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) is a biological process that plays an important role in
reducing the CH 4 emissions from a wide range of ecosystems. Arctic and sub-Arctic lakes …

Freshwater lakes represent a substantial natural source of methane to the atmosphere and
thus contribute to global climate change. Microbial methane oxidation is an important control …

Arctic lakes emit methane (CH 4) to the atmosphere. The magnitude of this flux could
increase with permafrost thaw but might also be mitigated by microbial CH 4 oxidation …

Freshwater lakes represent large methane sources that, in contrast to the Ocean,
significantly contribute to non-anthropogenic methane emissions to the atmosphere …

Lakes are a significant source of atmospheric methane, although methane-oxidizing
bacteria consume most methane diffusing upward from anoxic sediments. Diverse methane …

Anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) is a microbial process that consumes dissolved
methane (CH 4) in anoxic sediments and soils and mitigates CH 4 release to the …
