Draft Genome Sequence of Uncultured Upland Soil Cluster Gammaproteobacteria Gives Molecular Insights into High-Affinity Methanotrophy
ABSTRACT Aerated soils form the second largest sink for atmospheric CH 4 . A near-complete genome of uncultured upland soil cluster Gammaproteobacteria that oxidize CH 4 at <2.5 ppmv was obtained from incubated Antarctic mineral cryosols. This first genome of high-affinity methanotrophs can help...

Summary: | ABSTRACT Aerated soils form the second largest sink for atmospheric CH 4 . A near-complete genome of uncultured upland soil cluster Gammaproteobacteria that oxidize CH 4 at <2.5 ppmv was obtained from incubated Antarctic mineral cryosols. This first genome of high-affinity methanotrophs can help resolve the mysteries about their phylogenetic affiliation and metabolic potential. |
