From Lab to Landscape: Environmental Biohybrid Robotics for Ecological Futures

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This Perspective explores environmental biohybrid robotics, integrating living tissues, microorganisms, and insects for operation in real‐world ecosystems. It traces the leap from laboratory experiments to forests, wetlands, and urban environments and discusses key challenges, development pathways, and opportunities for ecological monitoring and ...

Cross Kingdom Metabolic Engineering Paradigm Elevating Sustainable Protein Production

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Confronting the dual crisis of escalating global protein demand and unsustainable agriculture necessitates transformative solutions. Here, we pioneer evolutionary insights from maize nitrogen optimization via asparagine synthetase (ASNS) to rewire metabolism in Pichia pastoris.

Effects of organic amendment on soil quality as assessed by biological indicators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Soil quality decline is one of the most predominant effect deriving from human activities. In particular, intensive agricultural management can affect negatively soils, principally due to rapid depletion of soil organic matter, that affects, in turn ...

Enzyme activities in Cerrado soils of Brazil [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications in Soil Science and Plant Analysis, 1999
Abstract Enzymes play an important role in cycling of organically bound nutrients in soils. Pyrophosphatase (PPi), acid phosphatase (AP), arylsulfatase (AS), urease (UR), and dehydrogenase (DH) activities were measured in air‐dry samples from the top 15 cm of two dark red Latosols and four red‐yellow Latosols from Cerrado regions of Minas Gerais (MG ...

Exogenous Organic Matter Improves Potato Yield by Regulating the Microbiological Fertility Index

open access: yesAgronomy
The nutrient availability of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) has been decreasing due to a decline in the biological function of yellow soil, limiting potato yield (PY).

Transcription Factor Promiscuity Drives Regulatory Rewiring and Evolvability in Gene Networks in Bacteria

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
When a master transcription factor (TF) is lost, bacteria can rapidly rewire gene regulatory networks by co‐opting related regulators. Using experimental evolution in Pseudomonas fluorescens, we show that TF promiscuity (low‐level, non‐cognate binding) provides the raw material for rewiring. Successful co‐option follows a predictable hierarchy governed
