Methane is a key compound in the global carbon cycle that influences both nutrient cycling
and the Earth's climate. A limited number of microorganisms control the flux of biologically …

Most methanogenic archaea can reduce CO2 with H2 to methane, and it is generally
assumed that the reactions and mechanisms of energy conservation that are involved are …

The global budget of atmospheric CH4, which is on the order of 500–600 Tg CH4 per year,
is mainly the result of environmental microbial processes, such as archaeal methanogenesis …

Although of limited metabolic diversity, methanogenic archaea or methanogens possess
great phylogenetic and ecological diversity. Only three types of methanogenic pathways are …

Methane is an important greenhouse gas and microbes in the environment play major roles
in both global methane emissions and terrestrial sinks. However, a full mechanistic …

Syntrophy is an essential intermediary step in the anaerobic conversion of organic matter to
methane where metabolically distinct microorganisms are tightly linked by the need to …

A novel mesophilic, hydrogenotrophic methanogen, strain SANAET, was isolated from an
anaerobic, propionate-degrading enrichment culture, which was originally established from …

To discover and characterize microbial diversity, approaches based on new sequencing
technologies, novel isolation techniques, microfluidics, and metagenomics among others …

A novel methane-producing archaeon, strain NOBI-1T was isolated from an anaerobic,
propionate-degradation enrichment culture, which was originally obtained from a mesophilic …

Incorporation of plant residues strongly enhances the methane production and emission
from flooded rice fields. Temperature and residue type are important factors that regulate …
