Methane (CH₄) is a valuable fuel, constituting 70–95% of natural gas, and a potent
greenhouse gas. Release of CH₄ into the atmosphere contributes to climate change.
Biological CH₄ production or methanogenesis is mostly performed by methanogens, a...

The aromatic carbon structure is a defining property of chars and is often expressed with the help of two
concepts: (i) aromaticity and (ii) degree of aromatic condensation. The varying extent of these two features
is assumed to largely determine...

BACKGROUND:
Plant gametophytes play central roles in sexual reproduction. A hallmark of the plant life
cycle is that gene expression is required in the haploid gametophytes. Consequently, many
mutant phenotypes are expressed in this phase....
