Computational and Comparative In Vitro Evaluation of GC–MS Profiled Cannabis sativa Inflorescence Extracts’ Metabolites on Selected Diabetes Therapeutic Targets

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 9, September 2026.
Cannabis sativa inflorescence extracts demonstrate promising antidiabetic potential through enzyme inhibition, antioxidant activity, and molecular docking. The hexane extract exhibits the strongest bioactivity, while key cannabinoids show high affinity for diabetes‐related targets, highlighting the plant as a promising source of novel antidiabetic ...

Compartment‐Specific Functional and Taxonomic Responses of Plant Growth‐Promoting Microbiomes Following Oxytetracycline Trunk Injection in Citrus

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Huanglongbing (HLB), caused by Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus, is the most destructive disease affecting citrus production worldwide. Trunk injection of oxytetracycline (OTC) is increasingly used to suppress the pathogen and improve tree performance, yet its ecological consequences for plant‐associated microbiomes remain poorly understood ...

Comparative functional genomics of the acarbose producers reveals potential targets for metabolic engineering

Synthetic and Systems Biotechnology, 2019
The α-glucosidase inhibitor acarbose is produced in large-scale by strains derived from Actinoplanes sp. SE50 and used widely for the treatment of type-2 diabetes. Compared with the wild-type SE50, a high-yield derivative Actinoplanes sp.

Bacteriophages in the Rhizosphere: Roles in Nutrient Cycling, Bacterial Community Structure, and Animal‐Mediated Dispersal

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
This review discusses bacteriophages' roles in soil ecosystems, highlighting their impact on nutrient cycling, plant health, and soil remediation, as well as animal‐mediated phage dispersal mechanisms. Overall, while bacteriophages have potential biotechnological applications, their negative effects on microbial functions and nutrient cycling highlight

Metabolites extracted from microorganisms as potential inhibitors of glycosidases (α-glucosidase and α-amylase): A review

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
α-Glucosidase and α-amylase are the two main glycosidases that participate in the metabolism of carbohydrates. Inhibitors of these two enzymes are considered an important medical treatment for carbohydrate uptake disorders, such as diabetes and obesity ...

Elucidating the Functional and Taxonomic Diversity of Soil Microbial Communities From Three Commercial Soybean Farms in South Africa

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
Prior to inoculation of soybeans, South African soils contain no Bradyhizobia that nodulate and fix nitrogen in soybeans. Soybean cultivation with prolonged inoculation resulted in the establishment and dominance of Bradyrhizobia in three soybean farms in South Africa as revealed by a microbial community study using shotgun metagenomics. ABSTRACT Prior
