Temperature-Dependent Network Modules of Soil Methanogenic Bacterial and Archaeal Communities.

ABSTRACT: Temperature is an important factor regulating the production of the greenhouse gas CH₄. Structure and function of the methanogenic microbial communities are often drastically different upon incubation at 45°C versus 25°C or 35°C, but are also different in different soils. However, the extent of taxonomic redundancy within each functional group and the existence of different temperature-dependent microbial community network modules are unknown. Therefore, we investigated paddy soils from Italy and the Philippines and a desert soil from Utah (United States), which all expressed CH₄ production upon flooding and exhibited structural and functional differences upon incubation at three different temperatures. We continued incubation of the pre-incubated soils (Liu et al., 2
