Towards Polymer Composite‐Based Transient Electronic Systems

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Biodegradable electronic systems are gaining attention for implantable biomedical applications, targeting disease treatment and lifespan extension. This review covers advances in biocompatible, biodegradable polymer composites using synthetic and natural polymers with conductive, semiconductive, and insulating fillers.

Absence of stress‐promoted facilitation coupled with a competition decrease in the microbiome of ephemeral saline lakes

Ecology, Volume 103, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Salinity fluctuations constitute a well‐known high stress factor strongly shaping global biological distributions and abundances. However, there is a knowledge gap regarding how increasing saline stress affects microbial biological interactions.

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.

The information science of microbial ecology

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2016
A revolution is unfolding in microbial ecology where petabytes of 'multi-omics' data are produced using next generation sequencing and mass spectrometry platforms. This cornucopia of biological information has enormous potential to reveal the hidden metabolic powers of microbial communities in natural and engineered ecosystems. However, to realize this

Plastics of the Future? Interdisciplinary Review on Biobased and Biodegradable Polymers: Progress in Chemistry, Societal Views, and Environmental Implications

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Accepted Article.
Global demand to reduce polymer waste and microplastics pollution has increased in recent years, prompting further research, development, and wider use of biodegradable and biobased polymers (BBPs). BBPs have emerged as promising alternatives to conventional plastics, with the potential to mitigate the environmental burdens of persistent plastic waste.

Assessing flower‐visiting arthropod diversity in apple orchards through metabarcoding of environmental DNA from flowers and visual census

Environmental DNA, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 117-131, January 2023., 2023
The diversity of flower‐visiting arthropods in four Danish apple orchards was assessed using molecular (metabarcoding) and non‐molecular techniques. The aim was to obtain a broader overview of arhtropod communities present to support future management practices towards more sustainable agricultural systems.

Enhancing phosphate-solubilising microbial communities through artificial selection

Nature Communications
Microbial communities, acting as key drivers of ecosystem processes, harbour immense potential for sustainable agriculture practices. Phosphate-solubilising microorganisms, for example, can partially replace conventional phosphate fertilisers, which rely

EUKulele: Taxonomic annotation of the unsung eukaryotic microbes [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
The assessment of microbial species biodiversity is essential in ecology and evolutionary biology (Reaka-Kudla et al. 1996), but especially challenging for communities of microorganisms found in the environment (Das et al. 2006, Hillebrand et al. 2018).

The PteridoPortal: A publicly accessible collection of over three million records of extant and extinct pteridophytes

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Pteridophytes—vascular land plants that disperse by spores—are a powerful system for studying plant evolution, particularly with respect to the impact of abiotic factors on evolutionary trajectories through deep time. However, our ability to use pteridophytes to investigate such questions—or to capitalize on the ecological and ...
