Black mangrove growth and root architecture in recycled glass sand: testing a new substrate for coastal restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
As coastal regions experience accelerating land loss, artificial substrates may be useful in restoration efforts to replenish sediment and facilitate plant colonization. Recycled glass sand is a potential artificial substrate for marsh building due to its sustainability, availability, and similarity to natural substrates.

Limited restoration of plant microbiomes: insights from fungal assemblages of a peatland dominant

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Plants are not solitary organisms; they host diverse and largely unexplored microbiomes that shape their health, adaptability, and ecosystem roles. Recent environmental sequencing findings have revealed that each plant species harbors a unique fungal assemblage.

Mycological Diversity Description II

open access: yesActa Botânica Brasílica
Here, Diaporthe myracrodruonis is introduced as new species from Brazil, isolated as endophyte from Myracrodruon urundeuva. Asterina mandaquiensis is epitypified and ilustrated for the first time.

Cognitive Symbionts. Expanding the Scope of Cognitive Science With Fungi

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract It has been argued that fungi have cognitive capacities, and even conscious experiences. While these arguments risk ushering in unproductive disputes about how words like “mind,” “cognitive,” “sentient,” and “conscious” should be used, paying close attention to key properties of fungal life can also be uncontroversially productive for ...

Forage mass, accumulation, and nutritive value of four perennial forages grown in a loblolly pine silvopasture in the Mid‐South United States

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Establishing forage in loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) plantations has the potential to increase grazing acreage for cattle farms in the Mid‐South, but appropriate species selection still requires investigation. The objective was to evaluate forage mass, accumulation, and nutritive value of four perennial forage species, novel‐endophyte tall ...

Microbiome‐mediated chemical communication in insects: Implications for pest management

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8132-8151, September 2026.
Microbiome–semiochemical interactions involve the following processes: direct microbial synthesis, host gene regulation, precursor biotransformation, microbiome modulation and indirect ecological signaling. Abstract Insects rely on semiochemicals to regulate aggregation, mating, foraging, and host selection. This review synthesizes evidence that insect‐

Effect of Endophytic Fungi on Thrips tabaci Development and Population Dynamics

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 8, Page 1102-1114, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Endophytic fungi are promising biocontrol agents because they colonise healthy plant tissues asymptomatically while inducing systemic resistance that negatively affects herbivorous insects. We investigated whether treatments with the endophytes Trichoderma harzianum and Beauveria bassiana in two onion cultivars (Allium cepa L.; Sturon and Red ...

Volatile Organic Compounds Emitted by Fungi Have Substantial Effects on Growth and Disease Resistance in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 9, Page 7168-7190, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by certain fungi have previously been suggested to modulate plant development and their response to stresses. While some fungal species, such as Trichoderma harzianum, are known to produce VOCs, the production of VOCs in other phylogenetically divergent species, such as Mucor mucedo, was previously ...

Achnatherum inebrians Bacterial Communities Associated with Epichloë gansuensis Endophyte Infection Under Low-Concentration Urea Treatment: Links to Plant Growth and Root Metabolite

open access: yesMicroorganisms
Despite chemical exchange often serving as the first step in plant–microbe interactions, the specialized chemical metabolites produced by grass–Epichloë endophyte symbiosis as mediators of host growth, nutrient acquisition, and modulators of the ...

Establishment Limitations of Sensitive Target Species Potentilla alba L. in Grasslands Restored on Arable Land

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10053-10062, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Species in grasslands restored from former arable land have multiple obstacles when establishing. Understanding whether these limitations stem from soil chemical or microbial differences could help to create suitable environments for specific target and other species with similar requirements.
