Male reproductive system in stenopodidean shrimps: Unveiling basal reproductive traits in shrimp‐like Pleocyemata (Stenopodidae and Spongicolidae)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Stenopodidea represents one of the basal lineages within Pleocyemata, yet the male reproductive system (MRS) of this group remains poorly understood, with limited information available regarding its morphology and function. This study provides the first detailed description of the MRS in four stenopodidean shrimp species from two families ...

First reports on the relationship between the eggshell and bone mineralization in Rhinoclemmys punctularia punctularia embryos

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Composed of various minerals, the eggshell provides ideal conditions for embryonic development, and understanding its composition and structure is essential for clarifying its relationship with bone formation. This study characterized the structure and mineral profile of the Rhinoclemmys punctularia punctularia eggshell in relation to ...

Morphology and molecular phylogeny of two freshwater ciliates, with notes on a new species and redescription of a known species (Ciliophora, Oligohymenophorea)

BMC Microbiology
The class Oligohymenophorea comprises a diverse array of ciliates, however, the diversity and phylogeny of freshwater taxa, particularly from inland waters, remain inadequately explored.

Morphology and Molecular Phylogeny of Two Soil Ciliate Species (Protozoa, Ciliophora) from the Changbai Mountain Region, China, Including a New Species

Microorganisms
Soil ciliates are an important component of the soil micro-food web, playing key roles in organic matter decomposition and nutrient cycling. However, research on the species diversity and taxonomy of this group in the temperate forest soils of China is ...

Integrating One Health to Mitigate the Emergence and Spread of Antimicrobial Resistance in Livestock and Aquaculture

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an escalating global threat driven by antimicrobial use in aquaculture and livestock. Resistant pathogens and genes can spread across humans, animals, and the environment through interconnected ecosystems. Using a One Health approach, this review emphasizes antimicrobial stewardship, regulatory strengthening, enhanced ...

Water pollution and aquatic biodiversity

Biodiversity International Journal, 2020
Water pollution is known to be a growing problem of 21st century all over the world. As a result of water pollution, pure water is transferred to less scare day by day. The most unique advantage of aquatic environment is the existence of life, and the most special feature of life is its biodiversity.

Enhancing the Secretion Systems: Genetic Engineering of Super Bioagents for Effective Plant Disease Control

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
Genetic engineering (GE) overcomes BCA limits, enabling robust, scalable crop protection. “Super Bioagents” (SBs) use optimized SSs to enhance bioactive molecule delivery. Optimizing SSs enhance precise, sustainable effector deployment for stable disease suppression. SBs use microbiome‐informed design for scalable, next‐gen sustainable crop protection.

Two worlds beneath: Distinct microbial strategies of the rock-attached and planktonic subsurface biosphere

Microbiome
Background Microorganisms in groundwater ecosystems exist either as planktonic cells or as attached communities on aquifer rock surfaces. Attached cells outnumber planktonic ones by at least three orders of magnitude, suggesting a critical role in ...

Dynamics of biotic resistance to plant invasions

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biotic resistance, the reduction in invasion success caused by native communities, plays an important role in the long‐term dynamics of biological invasions. A large body of empirical research on biotic resistance has accumulated since the last comprehensive review on the subject 20 years ago, enabling us to achieve a refined understanding of ...

Genome streamlining in Parcubacteria transitioning from soil to groundwater

Environmental Microbiome
Background To better understand the influence of habitat on the genetic content of bacteria, with a focus on members of Candidate Phyla Radiation (CPR) bacteria, we studied the effects of transitioning from soil via seepage waters to groundwater on ...
