Serpentine Biocrust Microbes Maintain Nitrogen Cycling Under Drought and Heavy Metal Stress

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.
This study highlights the complex interplay between soil geochemistry and moisture availability in shaping microbial communities within wetter and drier serpentine and non‐serpentine biological soil crusts. It demonstrates that both factors influence the structure of nitrogen‐cycling microbial communities and the processes they mediate.

Global Carbon Investment in Terrestrial Biological Nitrogen Fixation

Global Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 40, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Biological nitrogen (N) fixation (BNF) provides the N needed to produce proteins and other biological building blocks, helping feed humanity and mitigate climate change. Due to its high energetic cost compared to other forms of N acquisition, biotic investment in BNF indicates N limitation. Globally gridded BNF flux data provide an opportunity

Linking Biocrust Architecture and Dispersal: Reproductive Ecology of Lichens of the Grit Crust in the Coastal Atacama Desert

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 4, August 2026.
Microscopic analysis of Atacama Desert grit crust revealed a sequential assembly process in which airborne fungal spores of the Caliciaceae colonise quartz particles before encountering compatible Trebouxia photobionts. Free‐living algal cells on grit surfaces function as environmental reservoirs for symbiosis initiation, while multiple wind‐driven ...

LifeMet: Report on the 2024–2025 meteorite recovery expedition in Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica for the study of microbe–meteorite interactions

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 8, Page 1847-1860, August 2026.
Abstract Since the discovery of nine meteorites near the Yamato mountains in 1969, Antarctica has been recognized as a superb location for meteorite recovery. While Antarctic recovery expeditions prioritize meteorite preservation for mineralogical and planetary studies, meteorites are not typically collected for biological applications.

Dehydration‐driven organization of metabolites into NaDES‐like assemblies in orthodox seeds

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 3, Page 1172-1187, August 2026.
Summary Desiccation tolerance in plants, especially during orthodox seed dehydration, relies on compatible solute accumulation, complex molecular mechanisms, and intermolecular organizations that remain poorly understood. We combined metabolite profiling, mass spectrometry imaging, and electrospray and cold‐spray ionization mass spectrometry to ...

Airborne DNA reveals predictable spatial and seasonal dynamics of fungi

Nature
Fungi are among the most diverse and ecologically important kingdoms in life. However, the distributional ranges of fungi remain largely unknown as do the ecological mechanisms that shape their distributions1,2.
