Multifaceted obscurity of Thismia abei (Thismiaceae): A fairy lantern with the protologue long disregarded in practice

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Tiny, leafless fairy lanterns are easily overlooked on the forest floor. Thismia abei, endemic to Japan, persists in small, unstable populations and is listed nationally as Critically Endangered. Our recent work has revealed another, less obvious form of obscurity.

Multiple barriers maintain species boundaries in sympatric brood‐site deceptive Gastrodia orchids

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Societal Impact Statement Gastrodia orchids are inconspicuous forest plants that lack chlorophyll and obtain carbon from fungi. Their dull‐colored, ground‐level flowers are often hidden among leaf litter, yet they rely on small flies for pollination.

Evolutionary trade‐offs between beauvericin production and growth define divergent virulence strategies in Beauveria

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Two virulence strategies in Beauveria: a growth strategy characterized by rapid within‐host proliferation, and a toxin strategy involving antimicrobial activity and toxicity to insects Abstract BACKGROUND Pathogen virulence is often attributed to toxin production, yet toxins are metabolically costly and may not universally enhance fitness.

Identification and speciation of fungi causing onychomycosis: A prospective study

Journal of Clinical Sciences
Background: “Onychomycosis is a fungal infection of the nail unit.” Dermatophytes, yeasts, or filamentous fungi cause onychomycosis. Treating onychomycosis successfully requires the identification of infectious microorganisms. The study's objective is to

Combined application of Bacillus velezensis JDB15 and Trichoderma harzianum JDL4 suppresses banana Fusarium wilt under controlled conditions

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
The surfactin C secreted by JDB15 and the probable parasitism of JDL4 lead to the leakage of intracellular macromolecules and the degradation of hyphae, respectively. Combined application of the two strains effectively controls banana Fusarium wilt under controlled conditions.

Revisiting small‐molecule fluorescent probes in food freshness detection

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes serve as versatile tools for food freshness monitoring. This review summarizes recent advances in probes targeting biogenic amines, hydrogen sulfide, pH values, and other key spoilage markers, highlighting their design principles, sensing mechanisms, and practical applications in food quality monitoring. Abstract Food spoilage driven

Photocatalytic and Biotechnological Strategies for Remediation of Persistent Organic Pollutants: Mechanisms, Toxicity, and Antimicrobial Perspectives

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) pose significant ecological and human health risks due to their persistence, bioaccumulation, toxicity, and global distribution. Conventional remediation methods are often inadequate for achieving complete mineralization, demonstrating the need for advanced and substantial approaches.

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Comparative Analysis of Stress Adaptation in the Yeast Microbiome of Cactus

Yeast, EarlyView.
Yeasts and related fungi isolated from cacti or nearby non‐cactus plants were characterized phenotypically and genomically, revealing differences that hint at modes of adaptation to the cactus host. ABSTRACT Together with other fungi, yeasts make up a significant component of the plant microbiome. As the planet warms, cacti expand their range.
