Microbial C/N metabolic capabilities contribute to the fate of crop residue N in plant-soil-microbe continuum over multiple seasons

iScience
Summary: The mineralization of crop residue-nitrogen (N) is important for sustainable N supply to subsequent crops. However, the microbial mechanisms regarding residue-N mineralization over growth seasons are still unclear.

Proteomic Dissection of the Cellulolytic Machineries Used by Soil-Dwelling Bacteroidetes

mSystems, 2018
Bacteria of the phylum Bacteroidetes are regarded as highly efficient carbohydrate metabolizers, but most species are limited to (semi)soluble glycans. The soil Bacteroidetes species Cytophaga hutchinsonii and Sporocytophaga myxococcoides have long been ...

Synthetic Particulate Subunit Vaccines Co‐Delivering Multiple Antigens Induce Protective Immunity Against Melioidosis

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Engineered endotoxin‐free Escherichia coli were used to assemble poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) biopolymer particles displaying multiple conserved Burkholderia pseudomallei antigens via PhaC‐mediated surface presentation. Following formulation with poly(I:C), the particulate vaccines induced antigen‐specific humoral and cellular immune responses ...

Integrating One Health to Mitigate the Emergence and Spread of Antimicrobial Resistance in Livestock and Aquaculture

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an escalating global threat driven by antimicrobial use in aquaculture and livestock. Resistant pathogens and genes can spread across humans, animals, and the environment through interconnected ecosystems. Using a One Health approach, this review emphasizes antimicrobial stewardship, regulatory strengthening, enhanced ...
