Novel molecular markers for the detection of methanogens and phylogenetic analyses of methanogenic communities
Methanogenic Archaea produce approximately one billion tons of methane annually, but their biology remains largely unknown. This is partially due to the large phylogenetic and phenotypic diversity of this group of organisms, which inhabit various anoxic environments including peatlands, freshwater s...
