diversity of methanotroph communities in a basalt aquifer.	methanotrophic bacteria play an important role in global cycling of carbon and co-metabolism of contaminants. methanotrophs from pristine regions of the snake river plain aquifer (srpa; idaho, usa) were studied in order to gain insight into the native groundwater communities' genetic potential to carry out tce co-metabolism. wells were selected that were proximal to a tce plume believed to be undergoing natural attenuation. methane concentrations ranged from 1 to >1000 nm. carbon isotope ratios ...	2004	19712303
diversity of oxygenase genes from methane- and ammonia-oxidizing bacteria in the eastern snake river plain aquifer.	pcr amplification, restriction fragment length polymorphism, and phylogenetic analysis of oxygenase genes were used for the characterization of in situ methane- and ammonia-oxidizing bacteria from free-living and attached communities in the eastern snake river plain aquifer. the following three methane monooxygenase (mmo) pcr primer sets were used: a189-a682, which amplifies an internal region of both the pmoa gene of the mmo particulate form and the amoa gene of ammonia monooxygenase; a189-mb66 ...	2005	15812034
