Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.This study presents a chromosome‐level genome assembly of Streptomyces sampsonii and a pangenome analysis of 95 strains, revealing a highly expansive “open” pangenome. Our results highlight that horizontal gene transfer (HGT) and accessory gene variations drive the evolution of secondary metabolism and environmental adaptation.

Adhering Pasteuria penetrans endospores affect movements of root-knot nematode juveniles
Phytopathologia Mediterranea, 2012 Pasteuria penetrans is a biological control agent of root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.), preventing root invasion by second-stage juveniles (J2s), and eventually causing females sterility and death. greatest control effects for P. penetrans depend on

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8104-8119, September 2026.Certain beneficial fungi are widely used to control harmful nematodes in crops, especially when combined with organic matter. Together, they improve soil health, support plant growth, and enhance nutrient cycling. This natural partnership offers a promising, environmentally friendly approach to strengthening sustainable agriculture and reducing ...

Characterizing How Community‐Level Plant Functional Traits Impact Soil Microbial Diversity
Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.ABSTRACT Introduction Functional trait‐based approaches have been suggested for designing functionally diverse plant communities to influence soil microbial community structure and diversity. However, it remains unclear how species‐level plant functional traits (PFTs) and microbial associations translate to community‐level functional trait and soil ...

The Potential for Pest Management Using Plant‐Derived Signaling Compounds
Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.Plant‐derived signaling compounds mediate ecological interactions among plants, herbivores, their natural enemies, and neighboring plants. This graphical summary highlights three approaches to leveraging such ecological interactions for environmentally benign pest management: (1) Recruitment of natural enemies: Using herbivory‐induced plant volatiles ...
