Application of Metagenomic Next‐Generation Sequencing in the Diagnosis of Pneumonia in Patients With Cancer

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background With the development of new sequencing technologies, metagenomic next‐generation sequencing (mNGS) has become a diagnostic tool for respiratory tract infections. Patients with cancer may develop pneumonia caused by infections or antitumor therapy.

Salt in the Wound: Assessing Pathogen Susceptibility in Amphibian Populations Across a Gradient of Salt Pollution

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
The survival function of nine larval wood frog populations and their viral loads when exposed to FV3. The populations were collected as eggs from a range of salt‐polluted ponds. Viral load data are means ±1 SE. The populations are ordered in terms of the saltiness of their natal ponds.

Seasonal Dynamics of the Gut Microbiome in Urban Feral Pigeons Are Associated With Environmental Conditions, Not With Diet Shifts

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Using feral pigeons in urban environments, we show that microbiome diversity and composition vary seasonally despite stable diet composition. ABSTRACT Gut microbiomes play a crucial role in host physiology and seasonal adaptation. While seasonal shifts in avian gut microbiota are often attributed to seasonal diet variation, environmental factors may be

Assessment of Preservation and Extraction Methods for Environmental DNA in Sediments

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
We assessed how different preservation methods (freezing, room temperature, silica gel, Longmire buffer) affect eDNA metabarcoding results for bacterial, fungal, microeukaryotic, and metazoan communities in marine and freshwater sediments. Results demonstrate taxonomic‐ and habitat‐specific responses to preservation methods, providing evidence‐based ...
