Photocatalytic and Biotechnological Strategies for Remediation of Persistent Organic Pollutants: Mechanisms, Toxicity, and Antimicrobial Perspectives

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) pose significant ecological and human health risks due to their persistence, bioaccumulation, toxicity, and global distribution. Conventional remediation methods are often inadequate for achieving complete mineralization, demonstrating the need for advanced and substantial approaches.

Commercial Product Based on Metarhizium Anisopliae Affects Survival, Midgut Morphology, and Behavior in the Stingless Bee Scaptotrigona depilis (Hymenoptera: Apidae)

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Brazilian social stingless bees are important pollinators and producers of honey, wax, royal jelly, propolis, and other products. These species are experiencing a population decline, attributed to different factors, such as the excessive use of pesticides.

Plant‐derived compounds to improve soil inoculation for restoration

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Restoring the soil microbiome is increasingly recognized as an important requirement for the success of ecosystem restoration. Soil inoculation can reintroduce the missing taxa, but its application is limited by the large amount of donor soil that is needed and by the ...

Complementary root and mycorrhizal foraging strategies for phosphorus acquisition among arbuscular and ectomycorrhizal trees in a subtropical forest

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Phosphorus (P) availability is widely recognized as an important constraint on plant growth in many subtropical forest ecosystems, yet how contrasting mycorrhizal strategies mediate the use of inorganic and organic P forms remains unclear.

Tree species identity is associated with rhizosphere microbiome assembly via root metabolite‐mediated feedbacks in subtropical forests

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The rhizosphere microbiome is critical for forest ecological functions, yet the mechanisms through which tree species identity and neighbour tree interactions are associated with its assembly remain poorly understood.

Plant invasion in mountain ecosystems reduces soil micro‐food web complexity at higher elevations

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Anthropogenic activities have accelerated plant invasions in mountain ecosystems, impacting the structure and functions of native plant communities. Changes in above‐ground vegetation can drive shifts in below‐ground biota, yet the effects of plant invasions on soil ...
