Binuclear Copper‐Dependent Oxidative Enzymes Involved in Fungal Natural Product Modifications
This article summarizes recent biochemical characterizations of a new enzyme family named by the authors as binuclear copper‐dependent oxidative enzymes (BiNCOs). Found in fungal natural product biosynthesis, BiNCOs catalyze diverse CH functionalization reactions, including C(sp3)H halogenation, C(sp3)H hydroxylation, C(sp3)O macrocyclization, and ...

Interplanetary frontiers: terraforming from an invasion science perspective
The pursuit of a multi‐planetary existence represents one of humanity's greatest frontiers. If applied justly, it offers an opportunity to extend its civilization's lifespan amid escalating sustainability crises on Earth. One approach increasingly gaining traction is terraforming, a hitherto theoretical ecological and evolutionary experiment revolving ...

Community dynamics of lignicolous lichens on standing deadwood in a 275‐year chronosequence
Dead trees provide discrete habitat patches in which patch quality changes gradually due to wood decomposition. Although in most cases these patches persist for not more than a few decades, in some ecosystems deadwood decomposition and the consequent change in habitat patch quality can be a centuries‐long process, potentially leading to dynamics of ...

Technical wildness: Modernity, romanticism, and the technocratic turn in Scottish rewilding
Abstract Technical wildness is a new and increasingly influential culture of nature. This paper marks its emergence in Scotland in the early 2020s. Focusing on Scotland's rapidly evolving land management sector, the paper traces how private rewilding companies position science‐led land management and natural capital markets as the most effective ...

Zuzmók biodiverzitás-vizsgálata a szentbékkállai „Fekete-hegy” mintaterületen | (Biodiversity of lichen-forming fungi on Fekete Hill) : (Szentbékkálla, Hungary) [PDF]
Biodiversity of lichen-forming fungi was studied in July 2009 in the framework of the 5th Hungarian Biodiversity Days. Lichens from bark of deciduous and coniferous trees, acidic rocks and soil were sampled in the investigation area of 2 km2 ...

The value of herbarium specimens depends largely on the accuracy and accessibility of the data captured, which is dependent on curation practices. Previous studies have shown high levels of misidentification in collections, which become more problematic with increased access.

Conservation status of species used in the UK herbal medicine industry
Given the ongoing biodiversity crisis, sustainable use and management of medicinal plants is critical. We assessed the conservation status, threats and conservation actions of 298 species sold by UK suppliers to medical herbalists. We found that most species used are unevaluated, representing a gap in conservation knowledge, and of those with ...
