Termite mounds contain soil-derived methanotroph communities kinetically adapted to elevated methane concentrations

Termite mounds have recently been confirmed to mitigate approximately half of termite methane (CH(4)) emissions, but the aerobic CH(4) oxidising bacteria (methanotrophs) responsible for this consumption have not been resolved. Here, we describe the abundance, composition and CH(4) oxidation kinetics...
