Molecular ecology of facultative methanotrophs

Methylocella spp. are facultative methanotrophs, able to grow not only on one carbon molecules e.g., methane or methanol, but also on multi-carbon compounds e.g., acetate, succinate and malate. PCR-based molecular techniques were developed and validated to target the 16S rRNA genes of all the specie...
