The paper characterizes 45 novel bacteriophages infecting ammonia-oxidizing bacteria, revealing their taxonomic diversity and functional roles in nitrification.

This paper identifies S-layer shedding in Methylomicrobium album BG8, reveals its association with T1SS and metal acquisition, and shows pH adaptation leads to S-layer loss.

This study identifies a methanotroph-specific bacteriohemerythrin homolog in Methylomonas denitrificans FJG1 that likely facilitates oxygen delivery to methane monooxygenase under low oxygen conditions.
