Characterisation and isolation of novel host-associated Methanocorpusculum species from native Australian herbivores. feces metagenome

Characterisation and isolation of novel methanogenic archaea from various native Australian herbivores using 16S rRNA sequencing, shotgun metagenomic sequencing and cultivation. Metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) of novel Methanocorpusculum species were also recovered from publicly available host-associated metagenomes for comparative analyses
