Exploring Costa Rica's fungal trends: Insights from digitized specimens
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 1256-1274, July 2026.Fungi are essential to tropical ecosystems but remain largely absent from conservation agendas. By analyzing over 78,000 fungal records from Costa Rica—a globally recognized biodiversity hotspot—this study reveals key patterns in fungal diversity, distribution, and seasonality.

Silymarin and Its Isolated Flavanonol Lignans Are Liver X Receptor Antagonists
Archiv der Pharmazie, Volume 359, Issue 6, June 2026.Despite its long tradition in the treatment of liver‐related ailments, the precise mode of action of the milk thistle fruit extract remains vague. Here we identified liver X receptor as a molecular target of silymarin, a mixture of bioactive compounds from milk thistle extract, and its major flavanonol lignan components, which account for their anti ...

Deep Volumetric Super‐Resolution Imaging in Thick Biological Specimens With Sparse Scanning SIM
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 25, 4 May 2026.Sparse scanning structured illumination microscopy (SS‐SIM) extends the axial depth in super‐resolution fluorescence imaging by combining rapid laser scanning, pixel‐addressed intensity modulation, and sCMOS camera detection. SS‐SIM yields 1.6× lateral and 1.7× axial resolution gains over wide‐field microscopy and enables imaging through 300–600 µm ...

Beech decline reshapes fine root traits, microbial composition and soil carbon–nutrient cycling
Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 5, May 2026.This study highlights the critical role of rhizosphere interactions in nutrient cycling and tree health. It was found that tree decline triggers cascading effects that influence fine root, microbial communities and soil enzyme activities in the rhizosphere.
