Bacteriophages in the Rhizosphere: Roles in Nutrient Cycling, Bacterial Community Structure, and Animal‐Mediated Dispersal

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
This review discusses bacteriophages' roles in soil ecosystems, highlighting their impact on nutrient cycling, plant health, and soil remediation, as well as animal‐mediated phage dispersal mechanisms. Overall, while bacteriophages have potential biotechnological applications, their negative effects on microbial functions and nutrient cycling highlight

Endophytic Biostimulant Pyrroloquinoline Quinone Enhances Banana Growth and Primes Immunity Against Fusarium Wilt

open access: yesPhysiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is a redox cofactor derived from prokaryotes that participates in various biological processes involving dehydrogenase enzymes. Previous field trials identified a PQQ‐producing endophyte, Burkholderia seminalis 869T2, which enhances banana growth and reduces Fusarium wilt incidence from 24.5% to 3.4%.

Substrate for Thyroid Hormone Synthesis: Biochemistry, Evolution, and Physiology

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 8, 30 April 2026.
Two proposed sequence of events for thyroxine formation in patients expressing mutant thyroglobulin. (A) (1) TSH stimulation drives expression of misfolded TG. (2) Unremitting ER stress. (3) Stress‐induced cell death. (4) Dead thyrocytes release their contents. (5) The contents become iodinated. (6) Forming thyroxine.

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

open access: yesChemCatChem, 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.
