Aging as a Loss of Goal‐Directedness: An Evolutionary Simulation and Analysis Unifying Regeneration with Anatomical Rejuvenation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The paper proposes that the root cause of aging is the loss of anatomical goal‐directedness after development. Using evolutionary neural cellular automata simulations, the authors show that after the organism has reached its developmental homeostatic setpoint (the adult morphology), the absence of target state to pursue leads to a drifting anatomical ...

Soil Nutrient Enrichment Induces Trade‐Offs in Bacterial Life‐History Strategies Promoting Plant Productivity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Soil nutrient enrichment induces the trade‐offs between bacterial functional potential and growth‐rate potential. Such trade‐offs favor specific plant‐beneficial species and genes, playing a pivotal role in determining plant productivity. These findings enhance the understanding of the microbial responses in agroecosystems to ongoing global ...

Temperature Thresholds Govern Microbial‐Mediated Dissolved Organic Carbon Dynamics in Coastal Ecosystems

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Coastal dissolved organic carbon (DOC) represents one of the largest reduced carbon pools on Earth, and they are influenced by temperature. Across 7.6–35.9 °C ranges, the microbial‐mediated DOC dynamics is characterized by three temperature thresholds.

Unveiling Novel Viral Diversity, Biogeography, and Host Networks in Wildlife Through High‐Throughput Sequencing Data Mining

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Analysis of 57 536 high‐throughput sequencing datasets uncovers a vast, hidden world of viruses in wildlife. The researchers reveal significant geographic and host‐specific patterns of viruses, and their surprising cross‐species transmissions, such as avian flu viruses infecting goats.

Chronic PET‐Microplastic Exposure: Disruption of Gut–Liver Homeostasis and Risk of Hepatic Steatosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chronic exposure to environmentally relevant PET microplastics disrupts gut–liver homeostasis, leading to hepatic steatosis, early fibrosis, and altered gut microbiota. These effects signal metabolic imbalance and gut–liver axis impairment, emphasizing chronic microplastic ingestion as an emerging environmental health risk linked to non‐communicable ...

A Set of Novel Venom Proteins Enables Parasitoid Wasps to Exploit Older Hosts and Coexist with Competitors

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study elucidates a molecular mechanism enabling species coexistence between parasitoid wasps, showing how Asobara japonica uses a set of novel venom proteins to delay host development and exploit older hosts, thereby achieving temporal niche partitioning with Leptopilina drosophilae. Abstract Interspecific competition can drive species coexistence
