Methylomonassediminis sp. nov., Methylomonas paludicola sp. nov., and Methylomonas roseola sp. nov.: genomic insights into the evolution of methane oxidation and carotenoid biosynthesis

Investigation of three reddish-pink, gram-stain-negative, motile, flagellated, short rod-shaped methanotrophs isolated from wetland sediments in South Korea indicated that pMMO-dependent methane oxidation and carotenoid biosynthesis were evolutionarily conserved, whereas the sMMO system was shaped by more dynamic, line...
