Uncovering intra-daily intertidal biofilm dynamics in a shorebird foraging hotspot with hourly UAV multispectral imagery acquisitions

International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation
Estuarine mudflats are colonized by biofilm-forming microphytobenthos (MPB), which support primary production, stabilize sediment, and provide critical food for benthic invertebrates and shorebirds.

Constrained Forest Methane Sink by Thermal Adaptation of Soil Methanotrophs

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Climate warming can stimulate methanotroph‐mediated CH4 oxidation in forest soils, thereby mitigating the increase in atmospheric CH4 concentrations. By integrating evidence from a macro‐climatic thermal gradient and a 70‐day incubation experiment, this study demonstrates that microbial methanotrophs can adapt to long‐term temperature changes at the ...

Oligosaccharides With Defined Glycosidic Bonds Shape Gut Microbial Succession and Metabolism Via Bond‐Specific Microbial Responders

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Oligosaccharides with defined glycosidic bonds drive divergent gut microbial succession and shape unique metabolic profiles. Absolute time‐series profiling with Bayesian generalized Lotka–Volterra modeling identifies bond‐specific microbial responders, while monoculture validation and metaproteomics reveal linkage‐matched transport and cleavage modules.

Beyond Probiotics: Postbiotics for Healthy Aquaculture

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This critical review assesses limitations of probiotics and proposes postbiotics, preparations of inanimate microorganisms and their metabolites, as a more stable, controlled, and biosafe formulation. Postbiotics offer significant advantages during industrial aquafeed production and storage. However, their practical implementation is currently hindered

Spatial and temporal variability of macrobenthic communities in Chalus Shore of the Caspian Sea

‬‭Majallah-i ̒Ilmī-i Shīlāt-i Īrān, 2011
The changes in density and biomass of macrobenthos were seasonally investigated from winter 2005 till fall 2006 in southern Caspian Sea. Samples were taken with a 225cm2 Van Veen grab from depths of 7 and 20 meters along two transects: Line 8 area ...

Ammonification Process Is Limited by Transformation of Medium Molecular Weight Nitrogenous Organics but Not Hydrolysis of Proteins

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A multi‐level analytical framework, integrating protein‐level persistence analysis, nontargeted HRMS formula tracking, peptide‐level proteomics, and targeted monomer quantification under varying redox conditions, together with FMO calculations reveal that ammonification is limited by medium molecular weight nitrogenous multimers.

Low intra-canopy variability of floral traits in temperate woody plants

Global Ecology and Conservation
Floral traits represent a valuable yet underutilized resource for functional ecology. We aimed to examine the variability of six quantitative floral traits (carbon [C] and nitrogen [N] contents, C:N ratio, flower length and width, and dry biomass) among ...

Plant Metabolites Screening Identifies 7‐epi‐10‐Deacetyltaxol Inhibiting Cell Division by Interfering With the Cell Cycle and Microtubule Organization

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, an efficient screening system is developed for plant metabolites to find a compound, 7‐epi‐10‐deacetyltaxol, inhibits tissue elongation. It suppresses plant growth through brassinosteroid and microtubule pathways. It is later applied to animal cells and human tumor organoids, resulting in similar cell division suppression. These findings
