Cultivation‐Based Detection of a Novel High‐GC Nitrospira Derived From the Argentinian Copahue Volcano Area

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 4, April 2026.
In this cultivation‐based study, two novel moderately thermophilic Nitrospira enrichments were obtained from the geothermal field Las Máquinas in the Neuquén Province, Argentina. Both nitrite oxidizers, belonging to lineage V or the novel taxonomic lineage VIII, contain quorum‐sensing genes and a high genome GC content of 60.6% and 69.4%.

The “Pesticide Chip”: Chemical Legacies and Agrarian Futures in Costa Rica

Antipode, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract For decades, agro‐industrial capital has adopted cascading chemical and biotechnical interventions, or fixes, to secure accumulation through the cultivation of monocrops. We develop a framework that centres on how monocrop‐induced susceptibility to pests and pathogens—and the patchwork of fixes to address these—produces uneven chemical ...

Anaemic Streams: Iron and Essential Trace Metals Frequently Limit Primary Producer Biomass

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 3, March 2026.
Nutrient enrichment experiments in 41 streams across the eastern United States demonstrate that trace metals can limit the growth of primary producers. Trace metals are frequently co‐limiting with macronutrients and the availability of N and P in streams and watersheds are predictive of Fe and Zn limitation status.
