Soil‐derived, gut‐dominant generalist bacteria shape the fitness of folivorous larvae

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
Whether Lepidoptera harbor a conserved core gut microbiome has long remained contentious. Through large‐scale microbiome profiling of folivorous larvae, their host plants, and associated soils across three climatically distinct regions of China, we identify two soil‐derived generalist bacteria, Ralstonia insidiosa and Delftia sp., that colonize 97.92 ...

Infection mechanisms of Rhizoctonia cerealis in wheat

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
We discover that R. cerealis (Rc) is a primary pathogen causing sharp eyespot of wheat after 335 distinct isolates were isolated from 1683 SE‐diseased wheat plants across China over 7 years using a single hyphal tip isolation method. We then generated high‐quality reference genomes via de novo sequencing of five representative Rc isolates and ...

Nanoplastics: Methods, Exposure and Effects on Domestic, Farm and Wild Animals

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nanoplastics (NPs) are synthetic polymer particles ranging in size from 1 nm to 1 μm that have been identified as a major concern for ecosystems and organisms due to their plethora of negative effects. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the knowledge relating to exposure and effects of NPs in domestic (i.e., farm ...
