Open AccessPotential for Methanosarcina to Contribute to Uranium Reduction during Acetate-Promoted Groundwater Bioremediation
Previous studies of acetate-promoted bioremediation of uranium-contaminated aquifers focused on Geobacter because no other microorganisms that can couple the oxidation of acetate with U(VI) reduction had been det...

Paenibacillus maysiensis sp. nov., a Nitrogen-Fixing Species Isolated from the Rhizosphere Soil of Maize
A novel bacterium SX-49T with nitrogen-fixing capability was isolated from the rhizosphere soil of maize. Phylogenetic analysis of nifH gene fragment and 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that the strain SX-49T is ...

Iron oxides alter methanogenic pathways of acetate in production water of high-temperature petroleum reservoir
Acetate is a key intermediate in anaerobic crude oil biodegradation and also a precursor for methanogenesis in petroleum reservoirs. The impact of iron oxides, viz. β-FeOOH (akaganéite) and magnetite (Fe3O4), on ...

Open AccessGenome-wide transcriptome profiling of nitrogen fixation in Paenibacillus sp. WLY78
Diazotrophic (nitrogen-fixing) Gram-positive and endospore-formed Paenibacillus spp. have potential uses as a bacterial fertilizer in agriculture. The transcriptional analysis of nitrogen fixation in Paenibacillu...

Acetoclastic methanogenesis is likely the dominant biochemical pathway of palmitate degradation in the presence of sulfate
Long chain fatty acids (LCFAs) are important intermediates in the anaerobic degradation of n-alkanes. In order to find out the biochemical processes involved in the degradation of LCFAs, palmitate (a typical LCFA...

Open AccessAnaerolineaceae and Methanosaeta turned to be the dominant microorganisms in alkanes-dependent methanogenic culture after long-term of incubation
The methanogenic alkanes-degrading enrichment culture which had been incubated for over 1,300 days amended with n-alkanes (C15–C20) was investigated through clone libraries of bacteria, archaea and assA, mcrA fun...
