Variation in seed‐borne microbial communities of Metrosideros excelsa Sol. ex Gaertn. with consequences for germination success

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 63, Issue 5, Page 1981-2004, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Seed endophytic bacteria and fungi are co‐dispersed with seeds and are likely founders of the initial endophytic microbiome in developing seedlings. The effects of the seed microbiome on seedling survival and growth are of particular interest for their roles in protection against pathogens and plant resistance to environmental stress.

Decaying Spruce Wood as a Factor in Soil Carbon and Energy Flow Through Microbial Communities

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2025.
Decomposing spruce deadwood enhances microbial activity, increases carbon and nitrogen availability and improves soil moisture retention. It plays a crucial role in long‐term carbon storage and biodiversity maintenance, influencing energy and nutrient cycling within forest ecosystems.

Spatial and temporal variation of fungal endophytic richness and diversity associated to the phyllosphere of olive cultivars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Fungal endophytes are micro-organisms that colonize healthy plant tissues without causing disease symptoms. They are described as plant growth and disease resistance promoters and have shown antimicrobial activity.

From Mud to Meat: Comparative Metabarcoding Reveals Two Different Evolutionary Paths to Carnivory in a Group of Meiofaunal Annelids

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 22, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Evolutionary transitions to carnivory represent profound shifts in feeding mode that are often accompanied by widespread changes in organismal function, behaviour and ecology. Such transitions have evolved numerous times among animals, and predator–prey interactions have been major drivers of animal evolution.

Host pathogen interactions in relation to management of light leaf spot disease (caused by Pyrenopeziza brassicae) on Brassica species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Light leaf spot, caused by Pyrenopeziza brassicae, is currently the most damaging disease problem in oilseed rape in the UK. According to recent survey data, the severity of epidemics has increased progressively across the UK, with current yield losses ...

Perspectives on microbial community changes produced by Hermitia illucens frass and their impact on soil suppression against Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lactucae

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 10, Page 6832-6842, October 2025.
Soils amended with chitin or black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) frass reduced Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lactucae propagules compared to non‐amended soil. Changes observed in microbial communities could be involved. Abstract BACKGROUND Organic soil amendments rich in chitin have demonstrated significant potential promoting suppressive soils.

Cultivable fungal diversity in two karstic caves in Italy: under-investigated habitats as source of putative novel taxa

open access: yesScientific Reports
Microbial diversity of caves is largely understudied and its possible applications are still unknown. Autochthonous fungi, in particular, may have the potential to biomineralize metals and may be used as promising agents for bioremediation of polluted ...
