Methanotrophs and copper.
Methanotrophs, cells that consume methane (CH(4)) as their sole source of carbon and energy, play key roles in the global carbon cycle, including controlling anthropogenic and natural emissions of CH(4), the second-most important greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide. These cells have also been widely used for bioremediation of chlorinated solvents, and help sustain diverse microbial communities ...
متن کاملDetection of methanotrophs in groundwater by PCR.
Methanotrophic bacteria have significant potential for bioremediation, which would require methods for monitoring the presence and activity of these organisms in environmental samples. In this study, PCR was used to detect methanotrophic bacteria. Primers were designed on the basis of a partial sequence of pmoA, which encodes one of the proteins of the particulate methane monooxygenase. Specifi...
متن کاملQUICKSELECT Revisited
We give an overview of the running time analysis of the random divide-and-conquer algorithm FIND or QUICKSELECT. The results concern moments, distribution of FIND’s running time, the limiting distribution, a stochastic bound and the key: a stochastic fixed point equation.
متن کاملFacultative and non-facultative sex ratio adjustments in a
15 If parental allocation to each offspring sex has the same cost/benefit ratio, Fisher's 16 hypothesis predicts a sex ratio biased towards the cheaper sex. However, in 17 dimorphic birds there is little evidence for this, especially at hatching. We 18 investigated the pre-fledgling (i) sex ratio, (ii) body condition and (iii) sex19 differential mortality in a population of the glossy ibis (Ple...
متن کاملFacultative methanotrophy: false leads, true results, and suggestions for future research.
Methanotrophs are a group of phylogenetically diverse microorganisms characterized by their ability to utilize methane as their sole source of carbon and energy. Early studies suggested that growth on methane could be stimulated with the addition of some small organic acids, but initial efforts to find facultative methanotrophs, i.e., methanotrophs able to utilize compounds with carbon-carbon b...
