Increased methane production associated with community shifts towards Methanocella in paddy soils with the presence of nanoplastics by Zhibin He, Yarong Hou, Ying Li, Qicheng Bei, Xin Li, Yong-Guan Zhu, Werner Liesack, Matthias C. Rillig, Jingjing Peng

“…Among 391 metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs), the abundance of several Syntrophomonas and Methanocella MAGs increased concomitantly, suggesting that the NPs treatments stimulated the syntrophic oxidation of fatty acids. mRNA profiling further identified Methanosarcinaceae and Methanocellaceae to be the key players in the NPs-induced CH4 production. Conclusions The specific enrichment of Syntrophomonas and Methanocella indicates that LDPE NPs stimulate the syntrophic oxidation of LCFAs and SCFAs, with Methanocella acting as the hydrogenotrophic methanogen partner. …”
