Ecosystem‐Centered Robot Design: Toward Ecoresorbable Sustainability Robots (ESRs)

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Robots exploring natural ecosystems can support monitoring and conservation, but must adopt ecosystem‐centered design to avoid pollution, waste, and damage. This review proposes guidelines for co‐designing ecoresorbable sustainability robots (ESRs), uniting materials, robotics, and ecological contexts in a single framework.

SOIL ORGANISMS – an international open access journal on the taxonomic and functional biodiversity in the soil

open access: yesSoil Organisms, 2019
Biodiversity change and the identification of the underlying drivers are in the focus of ecological research and public and political debate (IPBES 2019). Soil biodiversity has thus far rarely entered this discussion and analyses (Cameron et al.

Unveiling Global Diversity of Patescibacteriota and Functional Interactions with Host Microbes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Patescibacteriota represents a diverse group of ultra‐small epibiotic bacteria, which is largely overlooked. By integrating ribosomal protein S3‐based community profiling with MAG‐based metabolic potential analyses, this study provides new insights into their distribution, diversity, and potential interactions with other bacteria across diverse ...

The threat-work: a network of potential threats to soil biodiversity

open access: yesSoil Organisms
Soils are estimated to contain more than half of the biodiversity on our planet, encompassing a rich spectrum of genes, organisms and functions that play a crucial role in many ecological processes, such as nutrient cycling, organic matter decomposition,

The ecological clusters of soil organisms drive the ecosystem multifunctionality under long-term fertilization

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2022
Long-term fertilization is known to impact the biodiversity and community structures of soil organisms, which are responsible for multiple soil ecosystem functions (multifunctionality).

Two Novel S‐methyltransferases Confer Dimethylsulfide Production in Actinomycetota

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies two novel S‐adenosine‐methionine‐dependent methyltransferases, MddM1 and MddM2, in actinomycetes from the Mariana Trench. These enzymes can convert toxic hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and methanethiol (MeSH) into dimethylsulfide (DMS), serving as a cellular detoxification and oxidative stress response.

Soil Biodiversity: Influence of Soil Management Systems

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environment and Climate Change, 2023
Aim: Soil represents one of the most diverse habitats found on our planet. Soil organisms play crucial roles within ecosystems by exerting influence over physical properties and processes, as well as contributing to carbon and energy fluxes and the cycling of nutrients.

Fermented Lacticaseibacillus Paracasei Cultures Ameliorate Colitis by Modulating Microbiota‐Derived Tryptophan Metabolism and Macrophage Polarization

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A solid‐state fermented probiotic (PYW) is developed using wheat bran as substrate, containing high viable Lacticaseibacillus paracasei and bioactive metabolites. PYW alleviates intestinal inflammation by gut microbiota composition, enriching indole derivatives, activating aryl hydrocarbon receptor signaling, and regulating macrophage polarization. PYW
