The biodiversity of the Earth never ceases to astonish. One example that has radically changed the face of biology is the discovery of a group of organisms called archaea (pronounced “ar-kee-ah”). It ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract A temporal temperature gradient gel electrophoresis (TTGE) method was developed to determine the diversity of methanogen populations in the ...

New research suggests that methanogens -- among the simplest and oldest organisms on Earth -- could survive on Mars. Methanogens, microorganisms in the domain Archaea, use hydrogen as their energy ...

The methanogenic Archaea (methanogens) produce nearly all biogenic methane on Earth. All known methanogens fall into the phylum Euryarchaeota, where they form six distinct orders: Methanomicrobiales, ...

mBIOTA Elemental™ Effectively Reduces IMO-Causing Methanogenic Archaea M. smithii Featured oral presentation at Digestive Disease Week 2025 demonstrates significant modulatory effects of palatable ...

Jackson Ryan was CNET's science editor, and a multiple award-winning one at that. Earlier, he'd been a scientist, but he realized he wasn't very happy sitting at a lab bench all day. Science writing, ...

The vast majority of methane, a potent greenhouse gas, released in the atmosphere is produced by a group of microorganisms called methanogens. Close relatives of methanogens, called anaerobic methane ...

“The halophilic archaea had long been suspected to have evolved from a lineage of methanogens, and this new lineage is the missing link confirming this hypothesis,” William Whitman, a microbiologist ...

Microbiology has always been about recognizing the scale of what is unknown. In the beginning, the unknown was that microbes existed at all. The invention of the microscope proved that these tiny, ...

It turns out your skin is crawling with single-celled microorganisms -- and they're not just bacteria. A study has found that the skin microbiome also contains archaea, a type of extreme-loving ...
