Fecal Microbiome Alterations in Colorectal Cancer: A Systematic Review of Compositional Changes and Microbial Biomarkers

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
Gut microbiome plays a crucial role in colorectal cancer development. The advanced sequencing techniques have the potential to complement current non‐invasive methods for early diagnosis and prevention of colorectal cancer. This includes conducting studies with robust statistical power and consistent, replicable methodologies, taking into consideration

Strategies for dry forest recovery: Fifteen years of Caribbean experimentation across scales

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 6, June 2026.
Slow recovery of degraded Caribbean dry tropical forests can be accelerated by combining herbivore removal at landscape scales with enrichment planting of rare tree species under the cover of remnant forest patches. Long‐legacy effects on soils and forest taxonomical and functional diversity require long‐term management and community engagement ...
