Elevated concentrations of atmospheric CO2 ([CO2]) enhance the production and emission of methane in paddy fields. In the present study, the effects of elevated [CO2], elevated temperature (ET), and no nitrogen fertilization (LN) on methanogenic archaeal and methane-oxidizing bacterial community structures in a free-air CO2 enrichment (FACE) experimental paddy field were investigated by PCR-DGGE and real-time quantitative PCR. Soil samples were collected from the upper and lower soil layers at the rice panicle initiation (PI) and mid-ripening (MR) stages. The composition of the methanogenic archaeal community in the upper and lower soil layers was not markedly affected by the elevated [CO2], ET, or LN condition. The abundance of the methanogenic archaeal community in the upper and lower soil layers was also not affected by elevated [CO2] or ET, but was significantly increased at the rice PI stage and significantly decreased by LN in the lower soil layer. In contrast, the composition of the methane-oxidizing bacterial community was affected by rice-growing stages in the upper soil layer. The abundance of methane-oxidizing bacteria was significantly decreased by elevated [CO2] and LN in both soil layers at the rice MR stage and by ET in the upper soil layer. The ratio of mcrA/pmoA genes correlated with methane emission from ambient and FACE paddy plots at the PI stage. These results indicate that the decrease observed in the abundance of methane-oxidizing bacteria was related to increased methane emission from the paddy field under the elevated [CO2], ET, and LN conditions.

Charge separated ion-pair (IP) states formed from three distance-fixed photosynthetic triads were studied by the time-resolved EPR method. Upon photoexcitation of the triads in THF at 77 K, small and narrow signals were observed at the central parts of broad EPR spectra due to the excited triplet states of the chromophores. These signals were assigned to secondary, fully charge separated IP states by the simulation based on the spin-correlated radical pair mechanism. Time dependence of the TREPR signals indicates that charge separation occurs in the singlet manifold as in the case of the photoexcited state dynamics at room temperature. Estimated electron exchange interactions, J, are in the order of 10−2—10−3 mT, which is in line with the observed long lifetimes of the IP states.
