ABSTRACT Clubroot, a severe soil‐borne disease caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae, poses a severe threat to global production of Brassicaceae oilseed crops and vegetables. To date, there has been a serious lack of clubroot‐resistant germplasms in Brassica napus (AACC), necessitating the urgent development of novel disease‐resistant germplasm.

ABSTRACT Marine aquaculture is expanding globally, yet its interactions with surrounding ecosystems remain complex and insufficiently understood. This study reviews the fluxes of energy and nutrients from three major aquaculture systems: finfish cages, suspended bivalves, and seaweed farms and considers their implications for ecosystem functioning and ...

Microbial Controls on Dissolved Organic Nitrogen Cycling During Long‐Term Degradation Experiments
Abstract Dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) is critical for marine microbial growth by providing carbon and nitrogen. Although DON is rapidly cycled, some compounds within this pool can persist for long‐periods of time. To better understand how DON is cycled by marine microorganisms, we conducted 548‐day incubations using surface‐derived dissolved ...

Previous research has demonstrated that acclimation can have positive or negative effects on population growth rates in variable thermal environments, depending on the amount of time acclimation takes. A clear picture of the timescale of acclimation may help identify the consequences of various frequencies of thermal fluctuations for population ...

This review reveals major genetic data gaps for Philippine mangrove fauna, especially invertebrates, limiting species‐level eDNA detection. By compiling 48 years of biodiversity records and assessing reference library coverage, it highlights the need for targeted sequencing and shows how integrating eDNA with conventional surveys strengthens monitoring

Assessment of Preservation and Extraction Methods for Environmental DNA in Sediments
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 ...

There are many environmental DNA (eDNA) sources within and around a seabird nest. These DNA traces from soil, plant material, feathers, feces, and other nest components enable detection of a wide range of taxa, including plants, fungi, insects, arachnids, mollusks, reptiles, and other vertebrates. Here, we used DNA from nest box feces to obtain signals

Sedimentary ancient DNA study revealed 138 years of hidden microsporidian (unicellular eukaryotic parasite) diversity and host–parasite dynamics in a freshwater lake. A major community shift in the 2000s, linked to anthropogenic pressures, shows how paleogenomics reveals the diversity and long‐term ecological trajectories of these previously overlooked

Linking hydromorphological diversity to biodiversity and functioning in running waters
Abstract Environmental heterogeneity is a key driver of biodiversity and ecosystem functioning, yet linking physical habitat variability to ecological attributes remains challenging in aquatic ecosystems. Here, we present a unified framework that applies variance partitioning to hydromorphological characteristics—specifically flow velocity and depth—to

Biological characterization of a mid‐water salinity maximum intrusion over the Northeast US Shelf
Abstract Salinity maximum intrusions, subsurface layers of anomalously salty and warm continental slope water moving onto the continental shelf along the thermocline, are recurring features over the Northeast US Shelf and represent an important cross‐shelf exchange mechanism.
