A ‘Genome‐First’ Framework for Next‐Generation Bioinputs: From Functional Mining to Rational Synthetic Microbial Communities

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 5, May 2026.
I propose a ‘genome‐first’ framework to collapse the phenotypic bottleneck in bioinput discovery. By integrating multi‐layered genome mining and reverse ecology, this paradigm enables the rational design of stable synthetic microbial communities for a data‐driven and sustainable agricultural bioeconomy.

Electroenzymatic Cascades for Nitrogen Upgrading: Beyond Ammonia Towards Value‐Added Nitrogen Chemicals

ChemCatChem, Volume 18, Issue 7, 14 April 2026.
This review maps how electroenzymatic cascades that couple nitrogen‐cycle enzymes with C─N bond forming auxilary enzymes, powered by direct electron transfer (DET) or mediated electron transfer (MET), can upgrade N2 and waste nitrogen streams into value‐added amines, amides, amino acids, and other nitrogen‐based chemicals.

Development of an Engineered Bacterial Endophyte: Promoting Plant Growth Through Pyrroloquinoline Quinone (PQQ) Synthesis

Microorganisms
Endophytic bacteria are a group of microorganisms that can intercellularly colonize plant hosts without causing apparent damage or disease. Our previous works found that a pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ)-producing endophyte could promote plant growth and ...

Reprogramming of Gene Transcripts and Metabolites by the Wild Soybean Endophyte Pseudomonas sp. 77S3 Improves Soybean Salt Tolerance

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2704-2721, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Soybean is a critical source of protein and vegetable oil worldwide. Expanding its cultivation into salinity lands represents a promising strategy for increasing production; however, soil salinity severely limits soybean growth by disrupting physiological and metabolic homeostasis.
