Analysis of Quality Differences in Rhizoma Musae From Different Origins Based on Rhizosphere Soil Bacterial Diversity and Metabolomics

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study integrated bacterial diversity and metabolomics to explore correlations among soil factors, rhizosphere microorganisms, and quality of Rhizoma Musae from different origins. Significant differences in active components and 571 differential metabolites were detected, enriched in key secondary metabolism pathways.

Influence of Cowpea Plants on Soil Bacterial Community and Soil Quality: Effects of the Rhizosphere

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Cowpea (Vigna Unguiculata), a vital legume for suitable agriculture and food security in sub‐Saharan Africa, plays a crucial role in improving soil health through intricate plant‐microbe interactions in the rhizosphere. This review synthesizes current knowledge on the microbial interactions in the rhizosphere, focusing on soil health ...

Microbial community roles and chemical mechanisms in the parasitic development of Orobanche cumana

iMeta, 2022
Orobanche cumana Wallr. is a holoparasite weed that extracts water and nutrients from its host the sunflower, thereby causing yield reductions and quality losses. However, the number of O.

Long‐Term Management Shapes Soil Microbial Communities Primarily Through Modulating Soil Habitat Quality in Swiss Croplands

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil microbial communities are key drivers of soil functioning in agricultural systems. Yet the relative influence of soil properties and cropping practices on their diversity remains insufficiently understood. We investigated 60 cropland sites in western Switzerland, covering a broad range of soil properties and cropping practices, to explore

Single‐Cell Nanodroplet Processing Proteomics Pipeline for Analysis of Human‐Derived Microglia

PROTEOMICS, Volume 26, Issue 5, Page 59-68, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Single‐cell omics tools provide unique insights into heterogeneous cell populations and their responses to stimuli. For example, single‐cell RNA sequencing has identified several transcriptionally distinct populations of microglia, which are resident immune cells of the central nervous system (CNS) that are responsive to CNS injury, infection,

Impacts of polyethylene microplastics on the performance and mechanism of di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) degradation by two ecotype earthworms

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), a ubiquitous agricultural plasticizer, readily leaches into soils. Earthworm-mediated DEHP biodegradation and microplastics (MPs) co-contamination effects on vermicomposting remain uncharacterized. This study evaluated
