A roadmap to key traits of invasive Drosophilidae

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions have intensified in recent decades, mostly driven by international trade and travel, raising significant concerns, particularly regarding insect pests. Once non‐native species establish, they can disrupt natural ecosystem stability, undermine agroecosystem sustainability and cause substantial economic losses.

Optimization of a reactor for biostimulant production with emphasis on the economic aspects of hydrolysis

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Biostimulants are increasingly used in agriculture to promote plant growth, improve stress tolerance, and support sustainable farming practices. One common method of production is chemical hydrolysis of protein‐rich waste, such as tannery by‐products, offering an economical and eco‐friendly alternative to conventional raw materials.

Nodule and Root Zone Microbiota of Salt-Tolerant Wild Soybean in Coastal Sand and Saline-Alkali Soil

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Soil salinization limits crop growth and yield in agro-ecosystems worldwide by reducing soil health and altering the structure of microbial communities. Salt-tolerant plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) alleviate plant salinity stress.

The response of the abandoned fallow soil microbiome to wheat cultivation and the use of biofertilizer

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems
IntroductionThe re-involvement of fallow soils in agriculture is a pressing issue in ensuring food safety. We used the soil microbiome as an indicator of the state of fallow land in the taiga climatic zone compared to arable land and native soil, and its

Construction of Chronic Kidney Disease Mouse Model Induced by Diets With Different Adenine Content

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
By administering a 4 weeks adenine diet to C57BL/6J mice, we identified 0.2% adenine in purified feed as the optimal chronic kidney disease model. This model induces severe renal damage, gut dysbiosis, uremic toxin accumulation, and CKD mineral bone disorder, providing a clinically relevant platform for mechanistic and therapeutic studies.
