Pojam mangrove odnosi se na biljne zajednice koju nalazimo u slanim močvarnim područjima. Porijeklo naziva mangrove potječe iz zapadne Afrike (Senegal, Gambija i Gruzija) od riječi mangue. Nastale su prije oko 114 milijuna godina. Prilagodbe na ekstremne uvjete obuhvaćaju viviparno razmnožavanje, specijalno prilagođen korijenski sustav i mogućnost ...

Seagrass Posidonia oceanica seeds host diverse bacterial and fungal endophytes with plant‐growth–promoting traits, including nitrogen fixation and hormone production. These microbes may be vertically transmitted and support seedling establishment, offering insights for marine plant conservation and biotechnological applications.

Sedimentary microbiomes and, for the first time, rhizosphere microbiomes of Zostera capensis, South Africa's most abundant seagrass, were characterised using 16S rRNA metabarcoding across three estuaries. After accounting for seawater‐derived microbes, we found that sediment and rhizosphere communities largely overlapped but also harbor distinct core ...

Revealing patterns of endemism in the transatlantic family Chelodesmidae (Polydesmida: Diplopoda)
Abstract With fossil records dating back to the Silurian/Late Ordovician, millipedes stand out as one of the earliest terrestrial animal groups. Their limited vagility and high endemism make them valuable tools for formulating and testing biogeographic hypotheses, including those related to macro‐vicariance events.

ABSTRACT Ant‐flower interactions are prevalent in many ecosystems, yet their ecological significance remains poorly understood, particularly in isolated systems like the Galapagos Islands, where unique biotic assemblages create distinct interaction networks.

ABSTRACT This article contributes new insights into farming women's experiences of isolation and how they imagine and create socio‐spatial formations for affective connections in their socio‐cultural and material environments. We draw on in‐depth interviews with farming women and participatory co‐design research in a sparsely populated region of South ...

Recent Insights Into Alzheimer's Disease: Advances in Pathophysiology and Therapeutic Strategies
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder driven by interplay among amyloid‐β (Aβ) plaques, tau neurofibrillary tangles, inflammation and comorbid pathologies. Recent advances in biomarkers and therapeutic approvals have reshaped our understanding of its pathophysiology and treatment landscape.

Dead Matter, Living Machines: Repurposing Crustaceans' Abdomen Exoskeleton for Bio‐Hybrid Robots
Crustacean exoskeletons, repurposed from food waste, are engineered into sustainable bending actuators combining biotic structure with synthetic control. The augmented exoskeletons achieve rapid and robust motion with lightweight body and can be used as part of robotic manipulators, grippers and swimmers.

From Symbolism to Action: Financing Wetland Protection in a Warming World
ABSTRACT February 2, World Wetlands Day, highlights the vital role of wetlands in biodiversity, climate regulation, food systems and human livelihoods. Although they cover a small fraction of Earth's surface, wetlands provide a disproportionate share of ecosystem services and mitigate climate change through carbon sequestration.
