Rhizobacteria Exopolysaccharide: A Boon in Reclaiming Soil Fertility, Augmenting Plant Growth and Plant Stress Resilience

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
Microbial exopolysaccharides (EPS) enhance plant stress tolerance and soil health by improving water retention, nutrient cycling, and resilience to salinity and heavy metals, offering a biodegradable and eco‐friendly alternative to synthetic polymers for sustainable agriculture. ABSTRACT Microbial exopolysaccharides (EPSs) serve multiple industrial and

Pollinator Visitation Alters Cranberry Flower Fungal Communities in Wisconsin Cranberry Agroecosystems

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
A two‐year study reveals shared fungal communities between cranberry flowers and insect visitors, including Apis mellifera, Bombus species, solitary bees and hover flies. Greater fungal richness was present in pollinator‐accessible flowers compared to those that were tented.

Efficient simultaneous production of extracellular polyol esters of fatty acids and intracellular lipids from inulin by a deep-sea yeast Rhodotorula paludigena P4R5

open access: yesMicrobial Cell Factories, 2019
Background Polyol esters of fatty acids (PEFA) are a kind of promising biosurfactants and mainly secreted by Rhodotorula strains. In addition, some strains of Rhodotorula are reliable producers of microbial lipid. Therefore, it is feasible to establish a

Assessment of Metabolites in Noni Fruit Slurry Fermented With Four Non‐Saccharomyces Yeasts

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
Dried noni fruit slurry (DNFS) was fermented for 14 days with selected non‐Saccharomyces yeasts. GCMS, HPLC and amino acid analysis showed that Pichia kluyveri Frootzen and Williopsis saturnus NCYC22 grew well, reduced off‐flavor fatty acids, generated fruity aroma compounds and preserved total phenolic content. ABSTRACT Noni products often suffer from

The Culturable Mycobiome of Powdery Mildew‐Infected Plants

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Botanical gardens host diverse plant assemblages that provide valuable opportunities to study fungal biodiversity and plant–fungal interactions. Powdery mildews (Erysiphaceae) are common pathogens in these settings, yet little is known about how they co‐occur with culturable fungi present on infected leaves.
