The paper uses genome-resolved metagenomics to analyze soil samples from an Andean paramo wetland, revealing non-methanogenic microbial lineages and distinct metabolic potential.

The paper investigates how viral dynamics influence carbon metabolism in peat microcosms amended with catechin, showing that viral lysis redistributes intermediates to sustain methane suppression.

The paper maps soil microbiome functions in wetlands to understand methane emissions by analyzing microbial communities and gene expression across spatial and temporal gradients.

This paper investigates microbial and geochemical factors influencing methane dynamics in three coastal wetlands with varying salinity, finding that methanogen richness and abundance predict methane concentrations, while methanotrophs vary by site.

The paper identifies and characterizes RNA viruses in permafrost soil over four years, showing their diversity is structured by habitat and linked to greenhouse gas emissions.

The paper examines microbial responses to warming in thawing permafrost peatlands over seven years, finding habitat-specific stability despite environmental changes.

The paper integrates multi-omics data from wetlands to link microbial communities to methane fluxes, identifying conserved genera and metabolic interactions that influence emissions.

This study shows that catechin reduces methane emissions in peatlands by altering microbial metabolism and depriving methanogens of substrates.
