Soil Microbial Assembly Mirrors a Savanna Mosaic Amid Plant Invasion and Soil Disturbance
Grasslands and woody patches supported distinct soil and microbial assemblages, consistent with differences in vegetation inputs and nutrient regimes. Grasslands exhibited relatively simple assembly patterns, with plant diversity closely associated with soil nutrients and comparatively homogeneous microbial communities.

Estimating Dispersal Kernels for Stream Periphyton Using Drifting Lake Algae
Summary of methods and procedures organized by aim and specific objectives. Drifting lake algae used as a proxy for periphyton dispersal. ABSTRACT Dispersal patterns are a key component of many ecological and evolutionary processes, yet they remain understudied in microbial species due to technical challenges.

Nutritional content of phytoplankton communities under ice
Abstract The effects of winter environmental conditions on lake ecology can be highly variable. Ice and overlying snow isolate the water below, impeding exchange of materials among water, atmosphere, and the watershed. Even with these limitations, biological communities under the ice can persist, where cold‐tolerant taxa can be especially abundant ...

Effects of Spirulina Enrichment on Bread Quality: Color, Texture, Volatile, and Sensory Properties
This study explored how the addition of 1%–2% Spirulina powder affects bread quality, focusing on color, texture, volatile compounds, and sensory characteristics. Spirulina mainly influenced bread color and volatile profile, while texture remained largely unchanged. The enriched samples also showed more pronounced bitter and marine notes.

Under ocean acidification, turf algae are favored over corals, shifting the competition outcome and decreasing coral survival. The local pH microenvironment under the turf, resulting from associated biological activity, drives the dissolution of the coral carbonate skeleton.
