The seed bank created by the dung of large herbivores drives seed circulation in an alpine meadow
Abstract Seed circulation (i.e., sexual reproduction) is vital for the regeneration of aboveground grassland vegetation (AGV). It occurs in several steps: seed production (seed rain, SR), dispersal (endozoochory, i.e., dung seed bank, DSB), formation of the soil seed bank (SSB), germination, seedling growth, and establishment of adult plants.

Rapid sexual reproduction intensifies blooms of a mixotrophic dinoflagellate
Abstract Sexual reproduction is fundamental to the ecology and evolution of eukaryotes, yet its dynamics in microbial eukaryotes are often cryptic. Dinophysis are specialist mixotrophs that must balance prey capture, cell division, and sexual recombination during blooms, but relatively little is known about the occurrence and role of sex in their ...

Pseudomonas strains R32 and R47 inhibit Phytophthora infestans, which causes late blight in potato. To assess the importance of pyoverdine, a high‐affinity siderophore both strains produce, in P. infestans inhibition, we produced pyoverdine‐deficient mutants and tested their antagonistic activity at different developmental stages of the pathogen ...

ABSTRACT The growing recognition of the microbiome’s role in human health has propelled the emergence of microbiota medicine—a new discipline integrating microbiology, multi‐omics, and clinical science. Advances in sequencing, data integration, and interventions such as fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) have transitioned the field from ...
