The human gut microbiome across the life course

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

Arbuscular Mycorrhizal and Dark Septate Endophyte Fungal Association in Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) Varieties, Southern India

Notulae Scientia Biologicae, 2019
The study examined the root characteristics, type of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) and dark septate endophyte (DSE) fungal associations and their extent of colonization in 13 widely cultivated cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) varieties in southern India.

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Integrated Nutrient Management Enhances Root Growth, Nutrient Use Efficiency, and Ratooning Ability in Rice Under Acidic Paddy Soils

Agriculture
Ratoon rice is a unique cropping system that utilizes the regenerative capacity of rice tillers to achieve one sowing with two harvests in a single growing season, thus exhibiting great yield potential. However, the ratooning ability is often constrained

Characterization of Genetic Basis on Synergistic Interactions between Root Architecture and Biological Nitrogen Fixation in Soybean

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr] is an important legume crop and its yield largely depends on root architecture (RA) and biological nitrogen fixation (BNF). However, the relationship between RA and BNF, and its genetics behind remain unclear.

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Influence of an Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungus and Phosphate-Solubilizing Bacterium Inoculation at Stem Cutting Stage on P Uptake and Growth of Impatiens walleriana Plants in an Unsterile Field Soil

Journal of Horticultural Research, 2019
Microorganisms play an important role in the propagation and growth of plants. Propagation of plants through stem cuttings is a popular method widely practiced in horticulture and forestry.

Interactions between nitric oxide, gibberellic acid, and phosphorus regulate primary root growth in Arabidopsis

Biologia Plantarum, 2014
Nitric oxide (NO), gibberellic acid (GA), and phosphorus (P) have been reported to regulate primary root (PR) growth, but interactions between them in the growth of Arabidopsis PR remain unknown.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...
