Understanding the factors (salinity, nitrate, and carbon availability) and mechanisms that control N2O products and nitrate removal patterns in inland saline farmland ditches

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Denitrification, the microbial process by which nitrate (NO3−) in aquatic systems is converted to N2 and N2O, is widely recognized as an effective and environmentally friendly method for mitigating NO3− pollution in water bodies. However, the complex role of salinity, which could significantly influence the denitrification process, in salt ...

Beyond universal application: dissecting the differential amelioration and carbon sequestration performance of biochar in chloride-, sulfate-, and soda saline-alkali soils

Geoderma
Biochar is widely recommended for ameliorating saline-alkali soil and enhancing soil organic carbon. However, its efficacy across different saline-alkali soils (chloride, sulfate, and soda-types) remains unclear.

Abh, AbrB3, and Spo0A play distinct regulatory roles during polymyxin synthesis in Paenibacillus polymyxa SC2

Microbiology Spectrum
Polymyxins exhibit antibacterial activity against various gram-negative bacteria. However, the regulatory mechanisms of polymyxin synthesis remain unclear. Here, Abh, AbrB3, and Spo0A of Paenibacillus polymyxa SC2 were found to bind to P pmx via DNA pull-

Thermodynamic Constraints on H2 Production and Habitability From Mg‐Rich Serpentinites as Mars Analogs

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Serpentinization produces hydrogen and methane through abiotic water‐rock interactions, potentially supporting chemotrophic life in planetary subsurface environments. Serpentine deposits in the Martian Noachian landscapes of Nili Fossae and the Southern Highlands have been considered as potential paleo‐habitable zones. However, the geochemical

Précipitation de la fluorine et contrôle géochimique du calcium dans des sols alcalins du Niger : conséquences pour une estimation quantitative de l'évolution géochimique des sols [PDF]

, 1995
La précipitation de la fluorine a été identifiée dans des sols alcalins non salés du Niger. Celle-ci renforce le contrôle géochimique du calcium initié par la précipitation de la calcite.

Soil Texture and Chemical Properties Influence Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi Abundance, Diversity, and Richness in East African Rangelands

European Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
ABSTRACT Rangeland degradation in East Africa threatens soil biodiversity. Yet the diversity of native arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) remains underexplored in this region, despite their central role in nutrient cycling, soil aggregation, and ecosystem functioning.
