Responses of Root Microbiome and Metabolome Are Linked to Crop Disease Severity

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant microorganisms are an essential component of the host and perform critical functions in plant development and health. Emerging evidence shows that plants use their root exudates to recruit beneficial microbes that protect them against abiotic and biotic stresses, including diseases.

Exploring the Role of Intercropping and Mulching on Modulating Lettuce Biomass and Rhizosphere Microbiome

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Modern agriculture faces the dual challenge of maintaining high yields while minimising environmental impact, all under increasingly difficult climatic conditions. Practices such as intercropping and mulching have demonstrated potential to improve resource use efficiency, but their effects on crop performance and soil microbial communities ...

Mycorrhiza‐induced alterations in the spatial structure of stands in a subtropical forest

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 668-678, March 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Spatial aggregation patterns represent snapshots of ecological processes that occurred over an extensive period. Such processes can shape both the conspecific and the heterospecific spatial structure of plants across woody habitats.

High‐Resolution Community Profiling of Active Bacteria and Eukaryotes in Replant‐Diseased Blueberry Farm Soils From New Jersey, USA

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 3, March 2026.
Long read bacterial and eukaryotic ribosomal operon sequencing combined with stable isotope probing (SIP) allowed the differentiation of microbiomes in low‐ and high‐yield blueberry farm soils. This report may ultimately be used to improve productivity and potentially detect the responsible pathogenic agent(s) or other deleterious microbes.

Diversity and Distribution of Soil Fungi in Neotropical Mexican Forests

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
Soil fungal diversity across the Mexican Neotropics remains poorly characterized despite its ecological importance. Using the Global Soil Mycobiome dataset from 55 sites, we identified eight distinct fungal community groups structured primarily by vegetation type and climatic gradients.

Urban Microfarms: Hot or Cold Spots for Plants and Soil Biodiversity?

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 2, March–April 2026.
Investigation of soil and plant biodiversity in urban microfarms on the ground and on rooftops. ABSTRACT Urban agriculture plays a key role in urban ecosystems functionality and resilience, and can take many forms: allotment gardens, community garden or urban microfarms.

Fungivorous butterflies (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae): A rare record of feeding behavior

open access: yesRevista Chilena de Entomología
In this work, we report a rare feeding behavior, where adults of two species of frugivorous butterflies were feeding on fungi, Hamadryas februa februa (Hübner) on Auricularia cornea Ehrenb., and Pierella lena brasiliensis (Felder & Felder) on Phallus ...

Freshwater and Sediment Host Distinct Yet Overlapping Microeukaryotic Communities, With Sediment Communities Less Impacted by Treated Wastewater

open access: yesJournal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT Freshwater and sediment environments host diverse microeukaryotic communities that differ in structure and composition, yet exhibit taxonomic overlap. Using 18S V9 rRNA gene sequencing, we compared communities from these habitats in controlled 10‐day mesocosm experiments, examining diversity, overlap, and responses to treated wastewater (TWW).

Prevalence Rates, Species Distribution and Antifungal Susceptibility of Rare Candida and Related Saccharomycotina Yeasts Causing Bloodstream Infections in 28 Medical Centres

open access: yesMycoses, Volume 69, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background There is a lack of contemporary studies addressing the prevalence rates and antifungal susceptibility of bloodstream infections (BSI) caused by rare yeasts (RY) from the Saccharomycotina subphylum. Objectives This 16‐year multicentre study (2007–2023) aimed to assess the prevalence and antifungal susceptibility of rare yeasts ...
