Bioeconomy, sustainability, and digital technologies in Haematococcus lacustris biomass and astaxanthin production: advances and outlook

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Astaxanthin is a carotenoid with strong antioxidant properties, used in research on cancer treatment, ocular injuries, and neurological disorders. When produced by the microalgae Haematococcus lacustris, its antioxidant potential is even higher than that of the synthetic molecule, making it particularly attractive for pharmaceutical and ...

Variation of Soil Bacterial Communities in Forest Soil Contaminated with Chainsaw Lubricants

Microorganisms
Pollutants can exist in the soil for a long time and alter the bacterial community. Using lubricants to prevent the wear of chainsaw blades is necessary for thinning activities and wood harvesting. We investigated the influences of soil contamination with chainsaw lubricants on soil bacterial communities.

Biogas production from Opuntia stricta Haw.: microbial diversity and solid load influence on sludge recycle systems

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The search for alternative and sustainable energy sources becomes urgent as energy demand increases and fossil fuels become less available, especially in water‐scarce regions such as the Brazilian semi‐arid region, where current projections of global warming and the expansion of arid and semi‐arid zones point to a future of desertification ...

Effects of Increasing the Nitrogen–Phosphorus Ratio on the Structure and Function of the Soil Microbial Community in the Yellow River Delta

Microorganisms
Nitrogen (N) deposition from human activities leads to an imbalance in the N and phosphorus (P) ratios of natural ecosystems, which has a series of negative impacts on ecosystems.

More‐than‐gender? Moving beyond gendered expectations of divergent learners in early childhood education

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract In this paper, we explore how neurodivergent ways of being in early education are often gendered. The intersectionalities of gender and neurodivergence often lead to fixed expectations that perpetuate binary interpretations, pathologisations, missed diagnoses and a lack of curated support.

Enhancing the Secretion Systems: Genetic Engineering of Super Bioagents for Effective Plant Disease Control

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
Genetic engineering (GE) overcomes BCA limits, enabling robust, scalable crop protection. “Super Bioagents” (SBs) use optimized SSs to enhance bioactive molecule delivery. Optimizing SSs enhance precise, sustainable effector deployment for stable disease suppression. SBs use microbiome‐informed design for scalable, next‐gen sustainable crop protection.

Species Dynamics and Gene Expression in Algal Polycultures Under Mixotrophic Cultivation in Outdoor Pilot‐Scale Nordic Conditions

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
These results demonstrate that mixotrophic conditions drive both microbial community shifts and metabolic reprogramming, underscoring the importance of cultivation strategy and polyculture selection for targeted applications such as nutrient recovery and bioproduct generation.

Effect of Altitude Gradients on the Spatial Distribution Mechanism of Soil Bacteria in Temperate Deciduous Broad-Leaved Forests

Microorganisms
Soil bacteria are an important part of the forest ecosystem, and they play a crucial role in driving energy flow and material circulation. Currently, many uncertainties remain about how the composition and distribution patterns of bacterial communities ...

From apex to base: Uncovering spatial metabolic adaptation in Antarctic mosses

Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
Antarctic mosses survive extreme cold, desiccation, UV exposure, and oxidative stress. We analyzed three species by separating apical, middle, and basal zones. Each zone showed distinct metabolite patterns and biological roles, revealing spatial metabolic specialization. The results suggest that whole‐plant survival depends on coordinated contributions

Global patterns in the growth potential of soil bacterial communities

Nature Communications
Despite the growing catalogue of studies detailing the taxonomic and functional composition of soil bacterial communities, the life history traits of those communities remain largely unknown. This study analyzes a global dataset of soil metagenomes to explore environmental drivers of growth potential, a fundamental aspect of bacterial life history.
