TL;DR: New insights are provided into the specific process by which different inocula sampled from typical methanogenic environments that are commonly used to initiate industrial installations gradually adapted to allow biogas production from maize silage.

TL;DR: Five isolates having the closest taxonomic relationship to the Pseudomonas jessenii subgroup appeared to be the most efficient SDS degraders, decomposing from 80 to 100% of the SDS present in an initial concentration 1 g/L in less than 24 h.

TL;DR: The combined genotypic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic data strongly support the classification of the three strains: AP3_10,AP3_20 and AP3-22T as a novel species of Pseudomonas, for which the name Pseudomanas laurylsulfatovorans sp.

TL;DR: A metagenomic analysis of deeply sequenced methanogenic communities allowed for comparison of taxonomic and functional diversity as well as identification of microorganisms directly involved in various stages of methanogenesis pathways, which revealed hydrogenotrophic methanogens predominated in most native communities, whereas acetoclastic Methanosaeta seemed to be the key methanogen in the wastewater treatment plant.

TL;DR: The A3T strain (type strain PCM 2856T=DSM 103370T) differs significantly from the closest relative species and therefore represents a new species within the Pseudomonas genus, and bioinformatic analysis of the complete sequenced genome showed that it consists of 6,823,539bp with a 59.58mol% G+C content and does not contain any additional plasmids.
