Conventional and innovative approaches to black fungi control for stone heritage preservation
IUBMB Life, Volume 77, Issue 3, March 2025.Abstract Black Meristematic Fungi (BMF) are characterized by a thick melanized cell wall and an isodiametric cellular expansion. BMF represent one of the most damaging groups of microorganisms causing the deterioration of outdoor exposed stone monuments mainly due to the formation of dark spots and patches leading to the darkening of their surface ...

Geobiology, Volume 23, Issue 2, March/April 2025.ABSTRACT Alkaline lakes are among the most bioproductive aquatic ecosystems on Earth. The factors that ultimately limit productivity in these systems can vary, but nitrogen (N) cycling in particular has been shown to be adversely affected by high salinity, evidently due to the inhibition of nitrifying bacteria (i.e., those that convert ammonic species ...

Artemia Cyst Production in Solar Earthen Ponds in Vinh Chau, Vietnam, and Its Associated Microbiome
Aquaculture Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.Artemia franciscana farmed in Vinh Chau, Vietnam, have been known for their premium‐quality cysts. This study provides an update on Artemia cyst production in solar earthen ponds in Vinh Chau and explores the microbiome of Artemia gut, pond water, and pond sediment in order to generate clues for research on cyst productivity improvement.

Commercialization of Algae‐Based Biofuels: The Case of Ghana
International Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.Microalgae are a promising renewable energy source due to their rapid growth, high nutritional value, and minimal competition with food production. The study evaluates the feasibility of large‐scale algae‐based biofuel production in Ghana, contributing to the global shift toward sustainable energy.

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 26, Issue 12, December 2024.We isolated a novel methanogenic archaeon, Methanosarcina hadiensis sp. nov. (TD41E1‐1), from Boom Clay pore water at a depth of 225 m. It exhibits unique characteristics compared to previously characterized Methanosarcina species, such as the inability to perform acetoclastic methanogenesis and the presence of extensive surface appendages.
