Syntrophic microbiomes associated with methane-suppressive irrigation in rice

This study shows controlled drip irrigation suppresses methanogens and reduces methane emissions by 70-90% in rice paddies through improved aeration and soil redox potential.

Controlled irrigation suppresses methane emissions by reshaping the rhizosphere microbiomes in rice

This study shows that controlled drip irrigation reduces methane emissions in rice by altering rhizosphere microbiomes, favoring nitrifying bacteria over methanogens.

An Integrated Decarbonising Approach to Mitigate Methane Emissions and Enhance Productivity in Rice Cultivation

This study evaluates how irrigation methods, fertiliser combinations, and rice varieties affect methane emissions and productivity in rice farming, finding drip irrigation reduces emissions by 68% while maintaining yield.
