Characterizing How Community‐Level Plant Functional Traits Impact Soil Microbial Diversity

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Functional trait‐based approaches have been suggested for designing functionally diverse plant communities to influence soil microbial community structure and diversity. However, it remains unclear how species‐level plant functional traits (PFTs) and microbial associations translate to community‐level functional trait and soil ...

Compartment‐Specific Functional and Taxonomic Responses of Plant Growth‐Promoting Microbiomes Following Oxytetracycline Trunk Injection in Citrus

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Huanglongbing (HLB), caused by Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus, is the most destructive disease affecting citrus production worldwide. Trunk injection of oxytetracycline (OTC) is increasingly used to suppress the pathogen and improve tree performance, yet its ecological consequences for plant‐associated microbiomes remain poorly understood ...

Comparing ecological and economic benefits of organic farming and annual flower strips

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 9, September 2026.
Integrating agri‐environment schemes such as organic farming and wildflower strips offers complementary effects on biodiversity conservation. Implementing these schemes enhanced biodiversity by 20%–30%, while maintaining economic viability and similar profits/ha through premium pricing and subsidies.

Rapid Screening of Bacterial Chemoeffectors of Pseudomonas parafulva Using a CheA ATPase Activity‐Based Assay

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 9, September 2026.
We present a scalable, cell‐free, and straightforward NADH‐coupled CheA ATPase assay for quickly screening potential bacterial chemoeffectors and integrate it into a pipeline to identify both the chemoeffectors and their corresponding chemoreceptors in Pseudomonas parafulva, enabling systematic exploration of chemotactic sensing.

Revealing Functional Traits of Insect Pest Suppressive Rhizobacterial Strains Through Comparative Genomics

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 9, September 2026.
Inoculation of select rhizobacterial strains to enhance crop health is a growing field in sustainable agriculture. This study conducts a comparative genomic analysis of five plant‐beneficial rhizobacterial strains (Acidovorax radicis N35, Bacillus subtilis B171, Bacillus velezensis FZB42 Rhizobium radiobacter F4 and Pseudomonas simiae WCS417r ...
