"Candidatus Methanoperedens nitroreducens" is an archaeon that couples the anaerobic oxidation of methane to nitrate reduction. In natural and manmade ecosystems, this archaeon is often found at oxic-anoxic interfaces where nitrate, the product of aerobic nitrification, cooccu ...

Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, which can be converted by microorganism at the expense of oxygen, nitrate, nitrite, metal-oxides or sulfate. The bacterium 'Candidatus Methylomirabilis oxyfera,' a member of the NC10 phylum, is capable of nitrite-dependent anaerobic methane ...

Paddy fields are a significant source of methane and contribute up to 20% of total methane emissions from wetland ecosystems. These inundated, anoxic soils featuring abundant nitrogen compounds and methane are an ideal niche for nitrate-dependent anaerobic methanotrophs. After ...
