One-pot conversion of lignocellulosic biomass into two high-value nanospheres with high conversion yields

open access: yesIndustrial Crops and Products
Maximizing the utilization of lignocellulosic biomass is challenging. Lignin nanospheres (LNSs) and cellulose nanospheres (CNSs) have been reported as high-value biomass-derived materials.

Investigation of Plant Growth Promotion Potential of Novel Compost‐Derived Bacilli and Anticipating Their In Vivo Effectiveness Through Mathematical Modelling

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
Compost derived Bacillus isolates were screened for plant growth promoting traits, scored through modelling and validated in field trials on maize and okra. Selected strains enhanced growth significantly, enabling reduced chemical fertiliser use, ecofriendly bioinputs and improved soil health.

Dietary Specialisation Shapes Gut Bacterial Diversity in Dung Beetles: Insights From Coprophagy to Millipede Carnivory

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
Dung beetles feed on various food sources that are rich in microbial life. Here, we describe how the diets of seven dung beetle species, specialising in coprophagy, necrophagy, detritophagy, fungivory and carnivory influence their gut bacterial structure and diversity.

Differences in mycelial turnover and persistence of wood‐decay fungi at the microscale

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 1, Page 577-590, April 2026.
Summary How long do fungal hyphae persist in the environment? And how does this differ between groups and species of fungi? Despite growing knowledge of fungal contributions to decomposition and soil carbon cycles, surprisingly little is known about the turnover of mycelia: What happens to fungal hyphae over time? And how this impacts different fungi's
