Aerobic methane production by methylotrophic Methylotenera in groundwater

S. Li, X. Dong, P. Humez, J. Borecki, J. Birks, C. McClain, B. Mayer, M. Strous, M. Diao

The paper identifies Methylotenera ecotypes in methane-rich groundwater that use methylphosphonate for aerobic methane production, suggesting phosphate limitation in these environments.

Frequency of change determines effectiveness of microbial response strategies in sulfidic stream microbiomes

S. Li, D. Mosier, X. Dong, A. Kouris, G. Ji, M. Strous, M. Diao

This study investigates how microbial response strategies vary with environmental change frequency in sulfidic stream microbiomes, finding that rapid changes favor stochasticity and bet-hedging, while slow changes benefit codon-usage bias.
