Drought is a major cause of crop losses across agricultural regions. Rhizosheath formation enhances plant resistance to drought. Polyploids may tolerate stress more effectively through increased interactions with bacteria. However, the contributions of tetraploid rice associated microbiota to rhizosheath formation under soil drying remain unclear ...

The continental‐scale study reveals that soil phosphorus strongly predicts the richness of soil pathogenic oomycetes in Chinese grasslands, while precipitation and plant species richness drive their absolute abundance; modeling predicts ≈42% of grassland areas may face elevated oomycete disease risk under future climate scenarios, especially in typical

Antimicrobial agents and microbial ecology
<abstract> <p>Antimicrobials are therapeutic substances used to prevent or treat infections. Disinfectants are antimicrobial agents applied to non-living surfaces. Every year, several thousand tonnes of antimicrobials and their by-products are released into the environment and in particular into the aquatic environment.

This study develops a strategy to screen the active compounds from bio‐mixtures via combining transcriptomic profiling and molecular docking. The proposed method demonstrates 100% correction in three different biobased mixtures and is 3–20 times faster than traditional approaches.

Links between soil microbial communities and plant traits in a species-rich grassland under long-term climate change [PDF]
Climate change can influence soil microorganisms directly by altering their growth and activity but also indirectly via effects on the vegetation, which modifies the availability of resources.

A novel copper silicate nanozyme (CSHSs‐Ar) with high peroxidase‐like catalytic activity and great catalytic specificity is well developed using a facile in situ valence‐engineered approach. The well‐developed CSHSs‐Ar nanozyme‐involved system can be utilized and employed as an efficient colorimetric sensor for the detection of volatile sulfur ...

Biofilm formation is a common adaptation for microbes in energy-limited conditions such as those prevalent in the vast deep terrestrial biosphere. However, due to the low biomass and the inaccessible nature of subsurface groundwaters, the microbial ...

Magnetite Micro/Nanorobots for Efficient Targeted Alleviation of Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Improved reactive oxygen species scavenging capacities of functionalized micro/nanorobots (MNRs) are useful for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). MNRs can break the harmful bacteria in IBD, thereby eliminating inflammation and restoring the intestinal barrier function.

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