Preparation Method of Compost Tea Affects Its Suppression of Grey Mould (Botrytis cinerea) of Tomato Plants

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
Compost teas were prepared from different sources and dilution factors and used to treat tomato plants infected with Botrytis cinerea (grey mould disease). The treatments showed variable disease control efficacy, which was found to be related to differential bacterial and fungal community composition in the different compost teas.

Polyesterase activity and thermostability of carboxylesterases from Thermoleophilum album YS‐3

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 15, Page 4724-4743, August 2026.
Three novel α/β‐hydrolases from thermophilic bacterium Thermoleophilum album display carboxylesterase and polyesterase activity. These enzymes hydrolyse PET, PLA and PCL both at high and moderate temperatures. TA21 shows superior activity, efficiently converting MHET to terephthalic acid. Structural features underlying substrate binding highlight their

Horizontal Gene Transfer and Genome Rearrangements Shape Bacterial Adaptation for Bioremediation

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 7, July 2026.
Exposure to xenobiotics triggers genome evolution and horizontal gene transfer (HGT), driving the acquisition of novel catabolic functions. These genomic adaptations provide a competitive fitness advantage that reshapes microbial community structure and enhances biodegradation impact.

PFAS properties and destruction methods: A focus on enzymatic degradation

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, Volume 101, Issue 6, Page 1126-1152, June 2026.
Abstract Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are known as ‘forever’ chemicals and have lasting detrimental impact on the environment and living organisms. To understand PFAS molecules better, this review begins with an overview of PFAS definition, classifications and applications, and then provides a comprehensive summary and critical analysis ...

The Curious Case of CysE: Diversity and Distribution of Serine Acetyltransferases in Bacteria

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 5, Page 1092-1103, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Serine acetyltransferase (CysE) is a member of the left‐handed β‐helix family of acetyltransferases that catalyze the rate limiting step in de novo cysteine biosynthesis. There are two isoforms of CysE that differ in length, with the shorter isoform lacking approximately 76 amino acids at the N‐terminus of the protein from the serine ...

The Arsenal of Aromatic Degrading Bacteria: How They Sense, Chase, Adapt and Destroy Environmental Pollutants

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2026.
In the environment, bacteria sense aromatic pollutants, migrate toward them, adapt to toxicity, and deploy specialized uptake and catabolic systems. Genomic plasticity, metabolic versatility and division of labor within populations together aid in the degradation of persistent aromatics, highlights that biodegradation is driven by various eco ...
