Methane-linked mechanisms of electron uptake from cathodes by Methanosarcina barkeri

This paper confirms Methanosarcina barkeri can uptake electrons from cathodes, linking it to increased methane production and identifying both hydrogenase-mediated and hydrogenase-independent pathways for cathodic electron uptake.
