Microbiome‐mediated chemical communication in insects: Implications for pest management

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8132-8151, September 2026.
Microbiome–semiochemical interactions involve the following processes: direct microbial synthesis, host gene regulation, precursor biotransformation, microbiome modulation and indirect ecological signaling. Abstract Insects rely on semiochemicals to regulate aggregation, mating, foraging, and host selection. This review synthesizes evidence that insect‐

Glomus iranicum var. Tenuihypharum as a Biofertilizer Modulates Soil Microbial Community Composition and Enhances Soil Carbon Dynamics in Nectarine Cultivation

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The development of biofertilization strategies based on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) represents a promising approach to enhance crop productivity and soil health while reducing the environmental footprint of conventional fertilization. This study evaluated the effects of Glomus iranicum var.

Comparative Quality of Garden Strawberries (Fragaria × ananassa Duch. cv. Albion) Produced in Soil and Soilless Sustainable Urban Systems

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Materials Modern agriculture faces the challenge of balancing high crop yields with sustainable resource management and nutritional quality. Here, soil and soilless systems (hydroponics and aquaponics) for cultivating the day‐neutral cultivar ‘Albion’ of the garden strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) were compared in terms of ...

Nitrogen‐Starved Wheat: A Multi‐Omics Perspective From Epigenome Regulation to Grain Quality

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
This review establishes epigenetic regulation, specifically H3K27ac and H3K27me3 dynamics at nitrogen transporter, assimilation, and storage protein loci, as a principal determinant of cultivar‐specific nitrogen use efficiency in hexaploid wheat, independent of DNA sequence variation, and identifies the rhizosphere microbiome as an integral but ...

Characterizing the Milk Microbiome in Subclinical Mastitis: A Pilot 16S rRNA‐Based Study in Cattle and Water Buffalo

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
Milk samples collected from cattle and buffalo were pooled and screened for mastitis prior to DNA extraction. Sequencing of the V1–V7 region of 16S rRNA was performed using the MinION platform, and the resulting data were analysed to determine taxonomic classification and assess microbial diversity. ABSTRACT Background In the dairy sector of Bangladesh,

Serpentine Biocrust Microbes Maintain Nitrogen Cycling Under Drought and Heavy Metal Stress

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.
This study highlights the complex interplay between soil geochemistry and moisture availability in shaping microbial communities within wetter and drier serpentine and non‐serpentine biological soil crusts. It demonstrates that both factors influence the structure of nitrogen‐cycling microbial communities and the processes they mediate.

Highly Thermally Stable and Efficient Ru/MAFO Catalysts for Glucose Hydrogenolysis to 1,2‐Propylene Glycol

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 9, September 2026.
A low‐loading (1.5 wt%) Ru/MAFO spinel catalyst with strong metal–support interaction achieves 100% glucose conversion and 59.3% 1,2‐PG selectivity. Its exceptional thermal stability and resistance to Ru sintering enable stable recycling, offering a highly active and durable system for sustainable biorefinery applications.

Effects of Bleaching Protocols on the Esthetic Outcome and Surface Integrity of Enamel Treated With an Ammonia‐Free Silver Fluoride Solution

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, Volume 38, Issue 9, Page 1754-1765, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the effects of three bleaching protocols on the color stability and surface roughness of enamel previously treated with a water‐based, ammonia‐free silver fluoride solution (Riva Star Aqua). Materials and Methods Eighty‐eight human enamel/dentin specimens were demineralized and treated with Riva Star Aqua, divided into
