Austral Ecology, Volume 49, Issue 8, August 2024.Environmental DNA sampling coupled with high‐throughput sequencing is increasingly recognized as a useful method for assessing biodiversity with potential applications in terrestrial environments. Rock pools on granite inselbergs support diverse aquatic communities, yet the application of eDNA to document their biodiversity is lacking.

Dispersal in microbes: fungi in indoor air are dominated by outdoor air and show dispersal limitation at short distances. [PDF]
, 2013 The indoor microbiome is a complex system that is thought to depend on dispersal from the outdoor biome and the occupants' microbiome combined with selective pressures imposed by the occupants' behaviors and the building itself.

Protein Science, Volume 33, Issue 7, July 2024.Abstract Tuberculosis necrotizing toxin (TNT) is a protein domain discovered on the outer membrane of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), and the fungal pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus. TNT domains have pure NAD(P) hydrolytic activity, setting them apart from other NAD‐cleaving domains such as ADP‐ribosyl cyclase and Toll/interleukin‐1 receptor homology ...

A Caribbean epiphyte community preserved in Miocene Dominican amber [PDF]
, 2018 Fossil tree resins preserve a wide range of animals, plants, fungi and microorganisms in microscopic fidelity. Fossil organisms preserved in an individual piece of amber lived at the same time in Earth history and mostly even in the same habitat, but ...

Myriospora molybdina comb. nov. and the identity of Acarospora hysgina
Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2024, Issue 6, June 2024.The nomenclature and taxonomy of Acarospora molybdina is revised using morphological and molecular data. The new combination Myriospora molybdina is proposed and Acarospora hysgina is recognized as a distinct species while A. brunneola is reduced to synonymy with A. hysgina. In its new circumscription M.

Sun exposure drives Antarctic cryptoendolithic community structure and composition [PDF]
, 2019 The harsh environmental conditions of the ice-free regions of Continental Antarctica are considered one of the closest Martian analogues on Earth. There, rocks play a pivotal role as substratum for life and endolithism represents a primary habitat for ...

Is the diet cyclic phase‐dependent in boreal vole populations?
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2024.This study investigates the diets of two key boreal rodents through DNA metabarcoding to evaluate whether their food intake varies systematically with their multi‐annual population cycles. The findings suggest that diet changes related to these cycles are marginal compared to overall diet flexibility and suggest that the broad diets, with little ...
