Functional Diversity and Oleaginous Potential of Fungal Strains From Hawaiian Soil Ecosystems

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fungi represent an important but underexplored resource for microbial lipid production, including nutritionally valuable polyunsaturated fatty acids. Hawaiian soils, shaped by volcanic parent materials and strong environmental gradients, provide a unique setting for discovering functionally diverse fungal strains with distinct metabolic traits.

Enabling Bioprocess Upscaling Prediction Through Hybrid Modelling and Transfer Learning Under Small‐Data Scenarios

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accurate prediction of bioprocess scale‐up is critical for accelerating the deployment of novel and sustainable biomanufacturing systems. However, this remains challenging as multi‐scale data is expensive to generate and mechanistic understanding is often incomplete, leading upscaling decisions to rely heavily on empirical expertise.
