This study shows anaerobic methanotrophic consortia can oxidize carbon monoxide as an alternative electron donor, supporting cell maintenance rather than growth.

This study shows that sulfur redox intermediates sustain microbial activity in sulfate-limited methane seep sediments by driving sulfur transformations and anaerobic methane oxidation.

This study identifies convergent evolution and horizontal gene transfer as key drivers in the evolution of anaerobic methanotrophic archaea using comparative metagenomics of Candidatus Methanovorans.

CABO-16S improves 16S rRNA-based identification of prokaryotes and eukaryotes by integrating bacterial, archaeal, and organelle sequences, enhancing classification of environmental samples.

This study shows that Klebsiella outcompetes other microbes in oral and nasal communities during starvation, contributing to its persistence and potential pathogenicity.
