Soil beneficial bacteria: Harnessing tools for optimizing citrus growth and soil health in pH‐stressed soils

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Rhizosphere bacteria can support crop production by promoting plant health, soil fertility, and resilience to biotic and abiotic stresses. However, the potential role of soil‐beneficial bacteria, particularly plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), remains inadequately explored in citrus production grown on pH‐stressed soil.

Exopolysaccharide‐Based Microencapsulation of Plant Growth‐Promoting Bacillus Strains Improves Germination, Growth, and Yield of Chilean Common Bean Cultivars

open access: yesLegume Science, Volume 8, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Microbial biostimulants offer sustainable alternatives to chemical fertilizers in legume cultivation by enhancing seed germination, nutrient uptake, and stress resilience, while maintaining the yield. However, their practical application is often limited by weak shelf life and reduced viability under environmental conditions. In this study, we

Trichoderma virens XZ11-1 producing siderophores inhibits the infection of Fusarium oxysporum and promotes plant growth in banana plants

open access: yesMicrobial Cell Factories
Background Banana Fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense is a soil-borne fungal disease. Especially, tropical Race 4 (Foc TR4) can infect almost Cavendish subgroup and has a fatal threat to banana industry. Use of antagonistic microbes

Microbial regulation of global macroalgal blooms (green tides): From holobiont interactions to bloom dynamics and biogeochemistry

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract Green tides caused by Ulva species have become one of the most serious marine ecological disasters, now impacting many coastal nations around the world. Although climatic and environmental drivers of these macroalgal blooms are well recognized, growing evidence identifies Ulva‐associated microbiota as potential pivotal regulators of bloom ...

RNA‐Binding Proteins and Ferroptosis in Cancer: Mechanism and Therapeutic Implications

open access: yesMedComm – Oncology, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
Ferroptosis critically influences cancer cell fate and represents a promising therapeutic strategy. Emerging evidence identifies RNA‐binding proteins (RBPs) as key post‐transcriptional regulators of ferroptosis. The figure summarizes ferroptosis‐related RBPs across cancers: blue RBPs act as tumor suppressors by promoting ferroptosis, whereas red RBPs ...

Novel applications of the tomato microbiome: Roles and considerations for agriculture, human health, and society

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 530-555, March 2026.
Plants, like humans, have a microbiome that helps them grow, defend themselves against pathogens, acquire nutrients, and protect themselves against environmental stresses. The microbiome of tomatoes, a staple crop grown worldwide, could be utilized not only to reduce fertilizer and pesticide applications, but also to clean up harmful pollutants ...

Comparative efficacy of seed biopriming and soil drenching with Bacillus altitudinis TM22 and Bacillus atrophaeus MCM61 on the suppression of Fusarium wilt of cotton

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 3, Page 2424-2445, March 2026.
Co‐application of Bacillus strains TM22 and MCM61 suppressed Fusarium wilt of cotton. Seed biopriming with Bacillus strains performed better than soil drenching. TM22 + MCM61 improved vegetative and physiological aspects in cotton plants. TM22 + MCM61 enhanced the activity of defense enzymes and defense gene expression.

Responses of Root Microbiome and Metabolome Are Linked to Crop Disease Severity

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant microorganisms are an essential component of the host and perform critical functions in plant development and health. Emerging evidence shows that plants use their root exudates to recruit beneficial microbes that protect them against abiotic and biotic stresses, including diseases.
