From Membrane Composition to Antimicrobial Strategies: Experimental and Computational Approaches to AMP Design and Selectivity

Small, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising candidates for next‐generation antibiotics, acting through mechanisms such as membrane disruption and intracellular targeting. This review examines how variations in bacterial membrane composition critically influence AMP activity.

Imperceptible and Disposable Humidity and Temperature Sensors with Low Environmental Footprint Enabled by Aerosol Jet Printing and Cellulose‐Based Substrates

Small Methods, EarlyView.
This study presents eco‐friendly humidity and temperature sensors printed on biodegradable cellulose using Aerosol Jet Printing. With 99.75% material reduction and 13 µm printing resolution, the sensors use a modified PEDOT:PSS ink for efficient operation across 10–80% RH and 20–50 °C.

Pollination‐related plant traits under environmental changes: Seasonal and daily mismatches produce temporal constraints

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Pollination is a key tenet of ecosystem sustainability and food security, but it is threatened by climate change. While many studies investigated the response of plant‐pollination traits to temperature, few attempted multifactorial and integrative approaches with ...

Agroecological farming promotes yield and biodiversity but may require subsidy to be profitable

Journal of Applied Ecology, EarlyView.
These results highlight that while evidence for the role of ecosystem services in supporting crop yield can be found, overcoming economic constraints within conventional farming systems is likely to be a key barrier to widespread uptake. Agri‐environmental subsidy payments can offset these costs, but only for moderate interventions.
