Hydrologic History Regulates Microbial Biofilm Diversity and Ecosystem Function

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 4, April 2026.
Hydrologic history regulates microbial biofilm diversity and ecosystem function. Historical flooding, but not drought, led to broad changes in composition and functional genes. ABSTRACT Aquatic biofilms are an understudied component of northern peatlands and are expected to play a more prominent role in ecosystem processes in areas where aquatic ...

New Species of Ascomycetes from Two Hypersaline Endorheic Lagoon Complexes in Zaragoza Province (Aragon Community, Spain)

open access: yesJournal of Fungi
Although certain hypersaline endorheic lagoons in Spain have been investigated to evaluate the composition, spatial structure, and ecological roles of their macro- and microbiota, the fungi inhabiting these niches remain largely unexplored. In this study,

Multi‐Organ Approaches to Cultivated Meat Biomanufacturing: Conceptual Applications of Ruminal Fermentation and Co‐Cultures

open access: yesJournal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Current academic research and industrial processes for cultivated meat production primarily utilize cultures of single cell types (monocultures) that do not capture the complexity of the in vivo environment of muscle and fatty tissues in the body.

Tetraopes Milkweed Beetle Genomes Elucidate the Adaptive Basis of a Temperate Coevolutionary Radiation

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 3, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The coevolutionary radiation of 27 species of Tetraopes longhorned beetles and their Asclepias milkweed hosts represents a classic example of adaptive evolution driven by plant chemical defences and herbivore counteradaptations. Investigations to date, however, have focused on a single species, Tetraopes tetrophthalmus, which feeds on the ...

Limitations of Common Molecular Markers in Fungal Biodiversity Analysis and the Benefits of Their Synergistic Use

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 3, April 2026.
ABSTRACT High‐throughput sequencing of the Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) regions is the primary method for estimating fungal diversity from environmental DNA. However, reliance solely on ITS markers is complicated by its high variability in sequence length and the presence of multiple variants within a single genome, which can bias diversity ...
