eDIY-sampler: an effective low-cost, compact and reproducible filtration system for aquatic eDNA sampling

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems
Environmental DNA (eDNA) methods are now commonly used for aquatic biodiversity monitoring, yet a lack of protocol standardization and the high cost of commercial samplers hinder broader application and results comparisons.

eDNA-based detection of invasive South American loricariid catfishes (Pterygoplichthys spp.) in upper tributaries of Krishna River system, India

Aquatic Sciences and Engineering
The invasiveness of the fishes in the genus Pterygoplichthys poses a considerable environmental threat to native aquatic ecosystems worldwide. This disruption of natural biodiversity and fish ecosystems corresponds to changes in nutrient dynamics ...

Genetic Reference Gaps Limit eDNA Metabarcoding and Biodiversity Monitoring of Tropical Mangrove Ecosystems

Environmental DNA
Mangroves support high faunal diversity and provide essential ecological services. However, biodiversity assessments in these habitats remain constrained by their structural complexity, resulting in limited accessibility, low visibility, and persistent ...

Mitogenomic Insights into Orthocladiinae (Diptera: Chironomidae): Structural Diversity and Phylogenetic Implications

Biology
Mitochondrial genomes are powerful tools for taxonomic delimitation and species identification, yet they remain scarce for Chironomidae (Diptera). In this study, we assembled and annotated 63 new mitochondrial genomes, encompassing 63 species within 39 ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

The human gut microbiome across the life course

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.
