The accumulation of polyethylene (PE) mulch films in agricultural soils represents a persistent environmental challenge. This study aimed to construct and evaluate efficient microbial consortia for PE biodegradation and ...

Recent research into decomposition has shed light on the intricate interplay within multi-kingdom communities, with microbial populations emerging as key players in the breakdown process and emphasizing their interaction...

ARTICLE HIGLIGHTS - Cassava waste with cyanide contamination presents significant environmental and health hazards. - Cyanide hydratase, nitrile hydratase, and rhodanese are microbial enzymes essential in the degradatio...

Microbial siderophores are low-molecular-weight compounds with a strong affinity for ferric (FSe3+) ions. They play a pivotal role in plant-microbial interactions by enhancing iron bioavailability to plants, primarily th...

Sudden death syndrome (SDS) is a major disease that affects soybean (Glycine max) production, primarily caused by the soilborne fungus Fusarium virguliforme in North America. Understanding the interactions among soybeans...

Background and Aim: Effective disinfection is critical for controlling pathogenic and opportunistic microorganisms in livestock environments. Didecyldimethylammonium chloride (DDAC), a quaternary ammonium compound, is wi...

Heavy metal pollution has become a major global concern due to its serious threats to ecosystem stability and public health. Although significant progress has been achieved in physical, chemical, and biological remediati...

Abstract Microorganisms play key roles in nutrient cycling and soil remediation in saline-alkaline ecosystems. However, how their assembly rules and interaction networks change during natural succession remains unclear. ...

Abstract Lava tubes formed during the 2021 Tajogaite eruption on La Palma (Canary Islands, Spain) provide a rare opportunity to investigate the earliest stages of microbial colonization in a newly created subterranean vo...

Abstract The massive production of plastics, together with inadequate waste management, has intensified the problem of plastic pollution. Recently, the scientific community has increasingly investigated the interactions ...

Diet-microbiome relationships are often evaluated using isolated nutrients, yet microbes encounter complex food matrices in which nutrient accessibility and baseline microbial community context jointly shape gut fermenta...

IntroductionThe global prevalence of non-tuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease (NTM-PD) is increasing. Individuals with NTM-PD frequently develop chronic pulmonary aspergillosis, which is associated with poor clini...

The rhizosphere is one of the most dynamic biological environments on Earth. Within this narrow zone surrounding plant roots, plants interact constantly with diverse communities of microorganisms including bacteria, fung...

The lung, and more specifically the airway epithelium, is continuously exposed to a wide range of inhaled environmental agents. Acting as a frontline physical and biochemical barrier, the airway epithelium orchestrates e...

Abstract Top-down trophic interactions are major drivers of microbiome dynamics, yet their outcomes are difficult to predict and their consequences for pathogen control remain unclear. We combine synthetic bacterial comm...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) represent a key biological strategy for enhancing agricultural resilience under extreme climatic events such as drought. However, how AMF interact with drought-tolerant plant genotypes ...

Abstract Nitrogen-doped carbon dots (CDs) were prepared from essential fluorescent amino acids, such as lysine (Lys), phenylalanine (Phe), tyrosine (Tyr), and tryptophan (Trp) by two routes, microwave and teflon-lined au...

Abstract Background Efficient nitrogen utilization in dairy cows is essential for maximizing lactation performance while minimizing nitrogen losses. This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of the additive W...

Platanthera transversa is a common orchid in western North America yet it is poorly studied. This makes it difficult to understand the breadth of pollinators and floral attractant mechanisms present, both of which are vi...

Mobile genetic elements (MGEs) such as bacteriophages and plasmids profoundly shape microbial community structure and drive horizontal gene transfer across ecosystems. Wastewater treatment systems, with their high cell d...

Aerobic granular sludge(AGS), characterized by high biological retention capacity and environmental stress resistance, has emerged as a frontier technology for dyeing wastewater treatment. However, the impact of cellulos...

ABSTRACT Microorganism‐based therapies, particularly those utilizing probiotics, have emerged as a powerful biomedical strategy owing to their inherent living functionalities. These living systems can dynamically inter...

The composition of the plant microbiome is shaped not only by the host plant and abiotic environmental factors, but also by intermicrobial cooperation and competition. Plant pathogens, therefore, must remain competitive ...

Abstract Fusarium-induced root rot severely constrains Panax notoginseng cultivation, yet the differential pathogenicity and ecological interactions among coexisting Fusarium species remain poorly understood. By isolatin...
