Anthropogenic and environmental constraints on the microbial methane cycle in coastal sediments
Large amounts of methane, a potent greenhouse gas, are produced in anoxic sediments by
methanogenic archaea. Nonetheless, over 90% of the produced methane is oxidized via …

Anaerobic oxidation of methane in paddy soil: Role of electron acceptors and fertilization in mitigating CH4 fluxes
The anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) in marine ecosystems is ubiquitous and largely
coupled to sulfate reduction. In contrast, the role of AOM in terrestrial environments and the …

DNA viral diversity, abundance, and functional potential vary across grassland soils with a range of historical moisture regimes
Soil viruses are abundant, but the influence of the environment and climate on soil viruses
remains poorly understood. Here, we addressed this gap by comparing the diversity …
