[Effect of plant-associated methanolic bacteria on methane and methanol concentration dynamics in atmosphere of pressurized chamber].
Stability of Chinese cabbage crop colonization by methanolic bacteria Methylovorus mays, Methylomonas methanica and Methylosinus trichosporium inoculated using a space-applicable method was evaluated. Besides, trends of methane and methanol concentrations in the pressurized chamber with inoculated and uninoculated crops were calculated. Methylovorus mays and Methylosinus trichosporium were shown to establish more stable colonization as compared to Methylomonas methanica. Also, stable association of methanolic bacteria with plants reduced airborne methanol 75% faster owing to its uptake by bacteria. Therefore, inoculation of these microorganisms can be viewed as a promising method of controlling volatile pollutants in space vehicle atmosphere. Methane drop after 6-hour exposure to inoculated control and test crops was not significant.
