Metagenomic Association Uncovers Host Genotype‐Structured Rhizobacterial Networks and Novel Taxa That Enhance Soybean Salt Tolerance

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 53, 24 September 2026.
An STI‐guided metagenomic association framework links soybean salt‐tolerance phenotypes with rhizosphere microbiome composition and network organization in natural saline soils. The approach identifies candidate beneficial taxa, including Thalassospira xiamenensis, and provides an efficient strategy for mining stress‐protective microbes from native ...

Lifestyle Impacts the Oral Microbiome of Classical and Post‐Classical Societies in Italy

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 191, Issue 1, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives The fall of the Roman Empire (476 CE) profoundly affected the lives of its peoples due to the political, administrative, and territorial changes that occurred. The majority of written records of the time focus on the social élite, leaving larger parts of the population understudied.

Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus LRPerfectus158 Alleviates Postinfectious Irritable Bowel Syndrome in Mice and Is Associated With Modulation of Hypothalamic–Pituitary–Adrenal Axis Activity

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 5, September 2026.
This study demonstrated that administration of Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus LRPerfectus158 significantly alleviated IBS‐like symptoms in a mouse model by attenuating visceral hypersensitivity, reducing intestinal inflammation, improving epithelial barrier function, and relieving anxiety‐like behaviors.

Indigenous Foodways in Transition: A Qualitative Study With Māori Elders in Aotearoa New Zealand

open access: yesKōtuitui: New Zealand Journal of Social Sciences Online, Volume 21, Issue 3, September 2026.
Purpose: This study explored how the Māori food landscape and foodways have changed over the last 70 years, centring the voices of Māori elders whose lived experiences provide critical insight into the nutrition transition. Methods: Guided by a Māori worldview and Kaupapa Māori research principles, we engaged in conversations (kōrero) with Māori elders

Validation of a portable electrochemical sensor for real‐time soil nitrate monitoring in cotton rhizosphere

open access: yesSoil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
Abstract Soil nitrate (NO3) exhibits rapid spatial and temporal variability that conventional point‐sampling methods cannot effectively capture, limiting timely nutrient management and plant stress detection. This study aimed to validate a low‐cost, three‐dimensional‐printed electrochemical NO3 sensor for continuous in‐soil monitoring and to evaluate ...

Metagenomics Reveals Microbial Community Shifts Associated With Contrasting Anthropogenic Impacts in Freshwater Sources of A Coastal Protected Area in Southeastern Brazil

open access: yesWater Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 9, September 2026.
Metagenomics revealed distinct anthropogenic signatures in the microbiome of freshwater sources on Marambaia Island, supported by the Anthropogenic Impact Index (AII). Impacted sites showed lower microbial diversity, enrichment of fecal‐associated taxa, and 14 antimicrobial resistance genes, whereas conductivity, salinity, and turbidity explained 88.1%

Interannual dynamic resource selection patterns of the northern bobwhite in a region with poor edaphic conditions

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.
Understanding an organism's shifting resource needs throughout its life cycle is crucial for developing effective conservation strategies. Northern bobwhite Colinus virginianus populations have been declining for nearly a century due largely to habitat loss/degradation.

A Probabilistic Pathway Framework for River–Sea Connectivity in Distributary Networks: A Case Study in the Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Hydrological connectivity regulates river–sea exchange by controlling freshwater delivery, salinity intrusion, sediment transport, and biogeochemical fluxes that sustain deltaic ecosystems. In distributary river systems, connectivity is mediated by multiple alternative downstream pathways, yet most assessments rely on network‐averaged indices ...

Tracking and modelling native woodland expansion in the Scottish Highlands using LiDAR

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 9, September 2026.
Forest restoration projects should utilise the new LiDAR‐based pipelines to effectively map young trees, assess whether targets are met, and plan further action. Notably, the Scottish Government is now commissioning a national airborne LiDAR scan, providing a unique opportunity to upscale our algorithms to create national woodland expansion databases ...

Serpentine Biocrust Microbes Maintain Nitrogen Cycling Under Drought and Heavy Metal Stress

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.
This study highlights the complex interplay between soil geochemistry and moisture availability in shaping microbial communities within wetter and drier serpentine and non‐serpentine biological soil crusts. It demonstrates that both factors influence the structure of nitrogen‐cycling microbial communities and the processes they mediate.
