Impacts of stress and aging on spore health in Schizosaccharomyces pombe

Microbiology Spectrum
Most fungi can produce dormant, long-lived cells known as spores (e.g., conidia and ascospores). Spores play a critical role in fungal biology and human health, but much about spores is unknown.

Functionally complementary bacterial inoculant coordinates arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to improve Angelica sinensis root yield and quality

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Comprehensive understanding of how diverse PGPR strains enhance the rhizosphere microenvironment remains a considerable challenge. Here, we provide experimental evidence that a functionally synergistic composite microbial formulation can markedly enhance growth performance and improve the quality attributes in Angelica sinensis.

Multi‐omics biomarkers for intestinal infection and inflammation in inflammatory bowel disease: Current evidence, translational challenges, and diagnostic opportunities

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Prospective multi‐site cohorts, multi‐omics profiling, and computational analysis may help identify biomarker patterns across clinical settings in IBD and superimposed infections. With further mechanistic and clinical validation, these signals could support the development of practical multi‐analyte tools for more precise diagnosis and management ...

Asthma and the Diversity of Fungal Spores in Air

PLoS Pathogens, 2013
The diversity of fungal spores in air is vast ([1], [2], Figure 1), but research on asthma focuses on a handful of easily identified, culturable species. Ecologists are developing new tools to probe communities and identify the full complement of fungi in habitats.

Farming in the shadows of Rome: A multi‐proxy palaeoenvironmental record from Loch Clunie—Perthshire

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Roman impacts on local society is a subject of international significance. Loch Clunie, Perthshire, lies only 5.4 km from Inchtuthil, the only Roman legionary fortress in Scotland, and contains two crannogs and a probable lakeside hillfort. Despite this proximity and the likelihood of local–Roman interaction, these sites remain unexcavated ...

Toward Sustainable Enzyme Production From Agro‐Industrial Residues: Optimizing pH and Soyhull Particle Size in Fungal Fermentation

Journal of Surfactants and Detergents, EarlyView.
Sustainable enzyme production from soyhull fermentation. ABSTRACT Carbohydrase enzymes are critical to sustainable detergent formulations, enabling effective cleaning at lower temperatures and reduced resource use. To improve the economic and environmental viability of enzyme production, this study explored soybean hulls—a low‐value agricultural by ...
