Sanitation felling against the European spruce bark beetle: A matter of intensity and forest type Tagli fitosanitari contro il bostrico tipografo: una questione di intensità e tipologia forestale

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
We assess the effect of sanitation felling performed in 2022 in North‐Eastern Italy on bark beetle damage that occurred in 2023 across eight spruce forest types, as evaluated using multispectral satellite imagery. Bark beetle damage was reduced only at very high or very low sanitation felling rates.

Genome-guided prediction of acid resistance mechanisms in acidophilic methanotrophs of phylogenetically deep-rooted Verrucomicrobia isolated from geothermal environments

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Verrucomicrobia are a group of microorganisms that have been proposed to be deeply rooted in the Tree of Life. Some are methanotrophs that oxidize the potent greenhouse gas methane and are thus important in decreasing atmospheric concentrations of the ...

Nature's Nanotech Warriors: The Role of Metalloproteins and Protein Cages for Environmental Remediation

Advanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 10, Issue 6, June 2026.
Cartoon representation of five major classes of metalloproteins and their brief mechanisms of bioremediation. The five classes include metallothioneins, metal‐precipitating enzymes, P.‐type ATPases, protein cages, and synthetic metalloproteins (de novo‐designed proteins/peptides for selective adsorption). These natural and engineered protein structures

Developing Feasible Methods for Incorporating eDNA Sampling in Hydrological Time Series Studies

Ecohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 4, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Environmental DNA (eDNA) is emerging as a promising hydrological tracer, complementing its established role in ecological monitoring. Here, we develop a feasible and easily realisable method for including eDNA sampling in automated hydrological time‐series sampling. The 3D printable and reusable frames, appropriate for common filter membranes,

Bioleaching of Transition Metals From Limonitic Laterite Deposits and Reassessment of the Multiple Roles of Sulfur-Oxidizing Acidophiles in the Process [PDF]

, 2021
Using acidophilic bacteria to catalyze the reductive dissolution of oxidized minerals is an innovative process that facilitates the extraction of valuable base metals (principally cobalt and nickel) from limonites, which are otherwise often regarded as ...

Unveiling the Bioleaching Versatility of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans

Microorganisms
Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans is a Gram-negative bacterium that thrives in extreme acidic conditions. It has emerged as a key player in biomining and bioleaching technologies thanks to its unique ability to mobilize a wide spectrum of elements, such as ...

High phylogenetic turnover magnifies evolutionary relatedness along bacterial primary succession

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Current models of microbial primary succession postulate that stochasticity dominates the early stages of soil community assembly, generating phylogenetically random patterns that are lost as abiotic and biotic filters gain relevance. We hypothesized that, under severe environmental stress, abiotic filters may override stochasticity from early

Cultivation of Electrogens With Cost‐Effective Membrane‐Less Bioreactor Designs

Fuel Cells, Volume 26, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Rational improvements in bioreactor design for scaling up power generation in microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are discussed in this study. The potential of autoclavable MFCs for isolating electroactive bacteria that produce sustainable electricity is being investigated.

Unraveling Oral Dysbiosis: Microbial Complexity in Common Oral Diseases

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
The oral microbiome undergoes dynamic establishment from birth, maturing into a resilient ecosystem. Perturbation of this homeostasis—driven by dietary, immunological, and anatomical factors—triggers dysbiosis, which underpins the pathogenesis of major oral diseases, including dental caries, periodontal disease, salivary gland disorders, oral mucosal ...
