Estuarine benthic diversity declines with temperature across a tropical–temperate gradient

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
Estuarine benthic sediments are important habitats that support ecosystem health and productivity, but the drivers of large‐scale patterns in benthic diversity are not well documented. Using 18S amplicon sequencing of 425 sediment DNA samples from estuaries spanning 20° of latitude along Australia's east coast, we assessed tropical–temperate patterns ...

METTL3 Alleviates Liver Abscess by Enhancing Macrophage Efferocytosis via m6A Methylation of Nrf2 mRNA

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Persistent inflammation and impaired macrophage efferocytosis contribute to liver injury during bacterial liver abscesses (BLA). This study was conducted to investigate whether METTL3 alleviates BLA by promoting macrophage efferocytosis through m6A methylation of Nrf2 mRNA. Materials and Methods METTL3 was overexpressed in the liver

From Rhizosphere to Resistance: Microbe‐Plant Interactions in Eco‐Smart Biocontrol

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Conceptual framework of eco‐smart biocontrol: Root exudates released by plants shape rhizosphere microbial community assembly by selectively recruiting beneficial microorganisms. These microbes suppress phytopathogens through direct mechanisms such as antibiosis, parasitism, enzyme production, and niche competition, while simultaneously activating ...
