Composition and Diversity Characteristics of Gut Microbiota during the Development of Telchinia issoria (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Ramie (Boehmeria nivea) is a traditional economic crop of high commercial value, whose cultivation is threatened by the leaf‐feeding pest Telchinia issoria. This study investigated how the gut microbiota of T. issoria shifts across its larval, pupal, and adult stages using 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing. ABSTRACT Ramie (Boehmeria nivea) was a traditional

Novel GH115 xylan α‐1,2‐glucuronidases with distinct preferences for xylan‐derived oligomers and polymers

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Natural polymers are promising sustainable materials for diverse applications. Xylans, major components of hemicellulose, exhibit origin‐dependent substitution patterns that determine their physicochemical properties. Targeted enzymatic modification of these substituents offers a mild and precise approach for tailoring the polymer's ...

Biological Degradation of Phthalates: From Bioremediation to Plastic Waste Valorization

ChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 7, 14 April 2026.
Phthalic acid isomers play a key role in the plastics industry, but pose significant environmental and health concerns. This review explores the microbial biodegradation of phthalates and their esters, focusing on bacterial enzymes, catabolic pathways, and cellular uptake mechanisms of phthalates.

Microbial Contribution to Soiling and Its Impact on Photovoltaic Module Soiling in Arid Zones of the Atacama Desert

Advanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 10, Issue 4, April 2026.
Microorganisms colonizing photovoltaic surfaces in the Atacama desert form biofilms that enhance particle adhesion and reduce energy yield. This study identifies UV‐resistant bacteria and carotenoid‐producing strains that interfere with PV performance.

Host-linked soil viral ecology along a permafrost thaw gradient [PDF]

, 2018
Climate change threatens to release abundant carbon that is sequestered at high latitudes, but the constraints on microbial metabolisms that mediate the release of methane and carbon dioxide are poorly understood1,2,3,4,5,6,7.

A Systematic Review of Biofloc Technology and Periphyton in Giant Freshwater Prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) Aquaculture

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
Biofloc technology and periphyton‐based systems enhance the sustainable production of giant freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii). A PRISMA‐guided review (2005 – 2024) shows that BFT improves survival (75 – 78 %) and feed efficiency, while periphyton supports natural productivity in grow‐out.

Microbial and Edaphic Responses to Invasion by Ageratina adenophora: Implications for Ecosystem Management

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study investigates how the invasive plant Ageratina adenophora alters soil properties and microbial communities to facilitate its spread. The findings show that invasion is associated with reduced soil moisture, increased nitrogen levels, and significant shifts in microbial composition, suggesting feedback mechanisms that enhance its invasiveness.
