MGM as a Large‐Scale Pretrained Foundation Model for Microbiome Analyses in Diverse Contexts

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We present the Microbial General Model (MGM), a transformer‐based foundation model pretrained on over 260,000 microbiome samples. MGM learns contextualized microbial representations via self‐supervised language modeling, enabling robust transfer learning, cross‐regional generalization, keystone taxa discovery, and prompt‐guided generation of realistic,

Coupled Above‐ and Belowground Ecosystem Stability Worldwide

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Are the worlds above and below our feet in sync? This global exploration reveals an entangled fate between above‐ and belowground ecosystem stability. It identifies arid regions as hotspots for this coupling and highlights temperature stability as a vital safeguard for maintaining ecosystem balance across our warming planet.

Effect of Specimens’ Height to Diameter Ratio on Unconfined Compressive Strength of Cohesive Soil

open access: yesStudia Geotechnica et Mechanica, 2023
The undrained shear strength (Su) and cohesion (Cu) of cohesive soils are frequently determined using an unconfined compression test. However, the test results are heavily dependent on specimen size.

Living Hydrogels: Harnessing Microorganism–Material Synergy for Next‐Generation Therapeutics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
 . ABSTRACT Microorganism‐based therapies, particularly those utilizing probiotics, have emerged as a powerful biomedical strategy owing to their inherent living functionalities. These living systems can dynamically interact with host environments and self‐regulate their activity, offering superior adaptability, prolonged functionality, and ...

Polar Lattice‐Distorted Motifs Enable Synergy of Local Polarization/Dipole Fields for Concurrent Glyphosate Wastewater Remediation and CO Evolution

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Photocatalytic treatment of glyphosate herbicide in agricultural wastewater is achieved through the cooperative effect of the local polarization field and dipole field mediated by lattice‐distorted carbon nitride. Glyphosate is completely degraded via selective C─P bond cleavage with a CO evolution rate of 1166 µmol g−1 h−1.

Mechanical Properties of Soil-cement Composites Made with Cohesive or Non-Cohesive Soil

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2019
The paper discusses results of mechanical and technological tests of soil-cement composites made with cohesive or non-cohesive soil. The compositions of the soil-cement mixtures analysed differed in terms of their cement paste volume fractions and water-cement ratios.

Additive and Partially Dominant Effects from Genomic Variation Contribute to Rice Heterosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Additive and partially dominant effects, namely at mid‐parent levels or values between mid‐parent and parental levels, respectively, are the predominant inheritance patterns of heterosis‐associated molecules. These two genetic effects contribute to heterosis of agronomic traits in both rice and maize, as well as biomass heterosis in Arabidopsis ...

Studies on soil cohesion (Part 1) theory of cohesion in ideal soil [PDF]

open access: yesSoil Science and Plant Nutrition, 1956
Abstract 1. Historical. Theory of an ideal soil due to capillary films was first studied by W. B. Haines (1925),1) and this was corrected and developed by R. A. Fisher (1926). 2)
