Structural and Functional Properties of Ingredient Composition in Kenkey Preparation: A Review

ChemFoodChem, Volume 2, Issue 2, June 2026.
This review synthesizes three decades of research on kenkey, a fermented maize staple of West Africa. Examining the structural, functional, and nutritional properties that emerge from traditional fermentation and thermal processing, and identifying priorities for future research toward quality standardization and commercial development. ABSTRACT Kenkey,

Continuous Alterations in the Gut Microbial Landscape Associated With Suicidal Ideation in First‐Episode Drug‐naïve Major Depressive Disorder

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
We define a gut‐microbiota gradient linked to increasing depression severity and suicidal ideation, highlighting severity‐tracking taxa and pathways, particularly Bacteroides stercoris and the bacterial secretion‐system pathway, as potential microbial markers for suicide risk in MDD.

Spatiotemporal Dynamics of the Relative Abundance of Soil Nutrient‐Degrading Enzyme‐Encoding Genes Across Continental US Ecoregions

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study integrates large‐scale soil metagenomic data with environmental variables to map and model the relative abundance of nutrient‐degrading enzyme‐encoding genes across US ecoregions. Machine‐learning predictions reveal strong environmental controls and spatial heterogeneity in microbial functional potential, with notable shifts projected under ...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal community abundance, functions, and symbiotic interactions revealed by root metatranscriptomes

iMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 2, June 2026.
Paradigm shift: PCR‐free methods reveal 6–15‐fold higher arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal abundance than metabarcoding, exposing systematic underestimation across decades of research. Predictive power: AM fungal abundance serves as a community‐level trait that predicts crop yield under drought conditions.

Beyond “you are what you eat”: Unlocking gut microbiota‐mediated biotransformation of dietary phytochemicals

iMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 2, June 2026.
The “efficacy paradox” of phytochemicals, low bioavailability yet significant health benefits, is associated with gut microbiota, which biotransforms dietary precursors into bioactive metabolites, enabling systemic effects. Thus, health outcomes of diet depend not just on intake “the rainbow”, but on gut microbial metabolism, redefining “you are what ...

L‐EasyARG: A long‐read metagenomics tool for rapid antibiotic‐resistance‐gene profiling

iMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 2, June 2026.
L‐EasyARG is a pipeline for long‐read metagenomic profiling of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and their genetic context. It integrates ARG identification, plasmid and mobile genetic element (MGE) detection, taxonomic classification, and further identifies ARGs carried by human bacterial pathogens (HBPs) defined in the WHO and ESKAPE pathogen lists.

Metagenomic mining of environmental resistomes: Comparative performance of deep learning and alignment‐based annotation methods

iMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 2, June 2026.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in marine environments poses intricate challenges due to the ecological complexity of microbial communities and environmental gradients. This study compares various antimicrobial resistance gene (ARG) annotation tools and databases, focusing on deep learning approaches versus traditional alignment‐based methods, to ...

Turnover of microbial cells, endospores, and organic carbon in ocean margin sediment affected by submarine landslides

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The turnover rate of microbial cells drops steeply by increasing depth in the seabed, in accordance with the decreasing rate of organic matter mineralization. Bacterial endospore formation and germination may take place concurrently, yet their coupling to the mineralization rates during burial is poorly understood.
