Genome‐Wide In Silico Analysis of the Type VI Secretion System (T6SS) Within the Morganella Genus

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
▪ Species‐specific T6SS patterns among Morganella genus (M. morganii and M. sibonii). ▪ Only one‐third of M. morganii isolates haboured a T6SS. ▪ All M. sibonii possess four T6SS clusters. ▪ M. sibonii exhibited a wide diversity of effectors compared to M. morganii.

Predator–Microbe Dynamics Inform Strategies for Robust Synthetic Community Assembly

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 6, June 2026.
This Review introduces ecological principles of predator–prey interactions as a new dimension in SynCom design. By linking microbial defence traits, encounter dynamics, and adaptive buffering, it outlines a framework for constructing predator‐resistant synthetic communities with enhanced resilience, stability, and functional performance under natural ...

Risk Is Not Equal to Impact: The Challenges of Developing a Traffic Light System to Regulate Farmed Salmon Production on an Ecosystem Scale

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT We review information on salmon farming production, environmental and climatic variables covering all salmon farming areas in the Patagonia marine ecosystems over a 10‐year period in Chile. With this information, we develop a semi‐quantitative Environmental and Productive Risk Assessment (RA) model as a guide for the design of a Traffic Light ...

The scale matters: A review on stimuli‐responsive microrobots categorized by scale for biomedical applications

Responsive Materials, Volume 4, Issue 2, May 2026.
We systematically summarize how each scale dictates fundamental choices in design feature, manufacturing technology, driving mechanism, and control strategy, which are inherently governed by scale‐dominated physical principles. Furthermore, the application of scale‐determined operation modes of microrobots across different stages of medical ...
