Summary Introduction

To review:

The process of metabolic interaction between methanogens and bacterial communities within a host animal or plant.

Introduction:

Methanogens produce methane as a by-product during the energy-yielding metabolic reactions. Redox reaction occurs to generate energy and methane is released as a by-product. Methanogens are associated with bacterial species that synthesize the required substances. Methanogens have diverse compositions and rigid cell walls.
