Harnessing Photo‐Energy Conversion in Nanomaterials for Precision Theranostics

Advanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 48, December 3, 2025.
Harnessing photo‐energy conversion in nanomaterials enables precision theranostics through light‐driven mechanisms such as photoluminescence, photothermal, photoelectric, photoacoustic, photo‐triggered surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and photodynamic processes. This review explores six fundamental principles of photo‐energy conversion, recent

Beech Leaf Disease Associated With Changes in Litter Decomposition and Fungal Communities

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
Less than 15 years ago beech leaf disease was identified as a newly emerging forest pest. There is still little known about the larger ecosystem impact. Our study is at the forefront of understanding how this newly emerging disease is impacting leaf litter decomposition and fungal communities in highly infested areas. ABSTRACT Forest pests and diseases

The construction and evaluation of secretory expression engineering bacteria for the trans-Cry3Aa-T-HasA fusion protein against the Monochamus alternatus vector

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
Pine wood nematode disease is currently the most deadly forest disease in China, and the Monochamus alternatus is its primary vector. Controlling the M. alternatus is crucial for managing pine wood nematode disease. This study, based on the selected HasA

Wood nematode species spectrum in the Mediterranean pine forests of Croatia

Periodicum Biologorum, 2016
Background and purpose: This work presents the first research on wood nematodes in Croatia and it was done in order to address the question of the impact of dendropathogenic nematodes in pine stands in the coastal region of Croatia. To reveal this impact, the first step is the isolation and proper identification of the species spectrum of the existing ...

Cold adaptive potential of pine wood nematodes overwintering in plant hosts

Biology Open, 2019
The pinewood nematode (PWN; Bursaphelenchus xylophilus) is the causal agent of pine wilt disease, which results in severe ecological and economic losses in coniferous forests. During overwintering, PWNs undergo morphological and physiological changes to adapt to low temperature environments.
