Reproduction on the Rocks: Life History of a Freshwater Macrobioeroding Bivalve
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.ABSTRACT Macrobioerosion, the excavation and removal of consolidated mineral substrates by macrofauna, is well established in marine systems, where macrobioeroders drive carbonate cycling, sediment production and habitat formation. In freshwater ecosystems, however, it has been documented in only a small number of invertebrate taxa and remains a poorly

Advances in research on autophagy in the maintenance of insect–microbe symbiosis
New Plant Protection, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2026.Autophagy plays a dual regulatory role in insect–microbe symbiotic relationships. Beneficial symbiotic bacteria in insects participate in nutrient exchange via the TOR pathway, whereas pathogenic microbes induce immune defense through the AMPK pathway. Autophagy‐related genes regulate development and pathogen clearance during this process.

Oxygenaging: A Physiological Framework for Geroscience
Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 9, September 2026.Mechanisms of aging disrupt oxygen homeostasis through three converging processes: oxygen‐cascade impairment, microvascular dysfunction, and molecular maladaptation. “Oxygenaging” integrates these domains to explain how declining oxygen delivery and utilization drive mitochondrial instability and amplify the effect of the hallmarks of aging.

Symbiogenesis: Beyond the endosymbiosis theory?
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2017 Symbiogenesis, literally 'becoming by living together', refers to the crucial role of symbiosis in major evolutionary innovations. The term usually is reserved for the major transition to eukaryotes and to photosynthesising eukaryotic algae and plants by endosymbiosis.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 Objectives: The symbiosis of Trichomonas vaginalis and Mycoplasma hominis is the first described association between two obligate human parasites. Trichomonas is the niche and the vector for the transmission of M. hominis infection.

MicroorganismsIt is known that the ciliate Paramecium cell surface including cilia is completely covered by high-molecular-mass GPI-anchored proteins named surface antigens (SAgs). However, their functions are not well understood.

Plastid origin: who, when and why?
Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014 The origin of plastids is best explained by endosymbiotic theory, which dates back to the early 1900s. Three lines of evidence based on protein import machineries and molecular phylogenies of eukaryote (host) and cyanobacterial (endosymbiont) genes point
