Responses of Root Microbiome and Metabolome Are Linked to Crop Disease Severity

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant microorganisms are an essential component of the host and perform critical functions in plant development and health. Emerging evidence shows that plants use their root exudates to recruit beneficial microbes that protect them against abiotic and biotic stresses, including diseases.

Metabolic reprogramming of efferocytosis in the tumour microenvironment: From apoptotic‐cell clearance to therapeutic targeting

Clinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
This review systematically deconstructs the pathological efferocytic—metabolic axis in tumours, framing it as a three‐stage, self‐reinforcing cycle: from metabolite‐driven macrophage recruitment, through hijacked surface recognition, to post‐phagocytic metabolic reprogramming that locks in immunosuppression.

Case Report of Plastic String Entanglement Mortality in a Breeding Oriental Reed Warbler

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Plastic production and use have increased markedly, concomitantly with rapid urbanization and development. Whereas birds and other animals use them as nesting materials, they pose toxicity and entanglement risks, potentially affecting survival and reproduction.

Macroid Formation in Salmacina stellaebayensis n. sp. From Mauritania's Baie de l'Étoile With New Insights on Mitogenome Evolution in Serpulidae (Annelida)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
We describe Salmacina stellaebayensis n. sp. from Mauritania's Baie de l'Étoile and provide the first complete mitochondrial genome for the genus Salmacina. The species forms distinctive macroid colonies in Cymodocea nodosa seagrass meadows, offering new insights into serpulid life history and habitat specialization.

Rapid Gamete Maturation and Social Modulation Shape Reproductive Dynamics in a Brood Parasitic Catfish

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Obligatory brood parasitism in the Lake Tanganyika cuckoo catfish requires rapid reproductive readiness to exploit unpredictable host spawning. Our experiments showed that males are almost continuously ready to reproduce, while females ovulate about once a week, with social interactions enhancing gamete maturation in both sexes.
