Alpine Secondary Forest Types Influence Soil Microbial Community Structure and Enzyme Activities on the Eastern Qinghai–Tibet Plateau

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10107-10126, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil microbial communities and enzyme activities influence soil functions and tree growth in ecologically fragile alpine regions. However, differences in soil microbial communities among secondary forests remain poorly understood in the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau.

Tetrathionate hydrolase from the acidophilic microorganisms

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Tetrathionate hydrolase (TTH) is a unique enzyme found in acidophilic sulfur-oxidizing microorganisms, such as bacteria and archaea. This enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of tetrathionate to thiosulfate, elemental sulfur, and sulfate.

Insights Into Divergent Mechanisms of Pyrite Oxidation by Indigenous Fungi From Mine Tailings

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 8, August 2026.
To elucidate the mechanisms of fungal pyrite oxidation, a large‐scale isolation of indigenous pyrite‐oxidizing fungi from mine tailings was conducted, and three focal strains were subjected to integrated multi‐omics and molecular analysis in fungus‐pyrite co‐culture systems, revealing their divergent oxidative strategies.

Microbes of biotechnological importance in acidic saline lakes in the Yilgarn Craton, Western Australia

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Acidic salt lakes are environments that harbor an array of biologically challenging conditions. Through 16S rRNA, 18S rRNA, and ITS amplicon sequencing of eight such lakes across the Yilgarn Craton of Western Australia, we aim to understand the microbial

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

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 3, Page 382-397, August 2026.
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.

Can acromegaly be controlled in all cases?

open access: yesJournal of Neuroendocrinology, Volume 38, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Acromegaly is a rare disease, due in most of the cases to a growth hormone (GH)‐secreting pituitary adenoma (PA), namely neuroendocrine tumour (PitNET). The treatment of patients with acromegaly is multimodal and multi‐step, including surgery, medical therapies, and radiotherapy.

Novel and Unexpected Microbial Diversity in Acid Mine Drainage in Svalbard (78° N), Revealed by Culture-Independent Approaches

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2015
Svalbard, situated in the high Arctic, is an important past and present coal mining area. Dozens of abandoned waste rock piles can be found in the proximity of Longyearbyen. This environment offers a unique opportunity for studying the biological control

A Deeper Look into the Biodiversity of the Extremely Acidic Copahue volcano-Río Agrio System in Neuquén, Argentina

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2019
The Copahue volcano-Río Agrio system, on Patagonia Argentina, comprises the naturally acidic river Río Agrio, that runs from a few meters down the Copahue volcano crater to more than 40 km maintaining low pH waters, and the acidic lagoon that ...

Sulfide mineral dissolution microbes: Community structure and function in industrial bioleaching heaps

open access: yesGreen Energy & Environment, 2019
Heap bioleaching is one of the most clean and economical processes for recovery of low-grade and complex ores, because the sulfide minerals are natural habitats for acidophiles capable of iron- and sulfur-oxidation.
