Mycological analysis of air in selected rooms of the University of Szczecin – a pilot project

Acta Agrobotanica, 2014
Aerobiological measurements were made by the volumetric method (VPPS Lanzoni and Burkard instruments). Concentrations of microscopic fungi were measured from April 16th to July 2nd, 2013, in two rooms of the Chair of Botany and Natural Environment ...

Ebselen Not Only Inhibits Clostridioides difficile Toxins but Displays Redox-Associated Cellular Killing

Microbiology Spectrum, 2021
Ebselen, a reactive organoselenium compound, was shown to inhibit toxins TcdA and TcdB by covalently binding to their cysteine protease domains. It was suggested that ebselen lacked antimicrobial activity against Clostridioides difficile.

Dominant Morphotypes of Native Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi from Coffee Plantations and Their Propagation with Trap Plants

International Journal of Plant Biology
Coffee cultivation facilitates foreign trade, which is important to the Mexican economy, particularly to the coffee growers of Jilotepec, Veracruz. However, in this region, the soil in which the coffee plants are grown is acidic and has low nutrient ...

Divergent Responses of Bacterial Communities to Permafrost Degradation and Their Associations With Carbon Across Vertical Profiles

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Bacterial α‐diversity decreases, but stochasticity and community stability increase across the 15 m‐depth vertical profiles and along the degraded gradient within the active layer. The abundance and interaction of core taxa mainly control community stability in the active and permafrost layers, respectively.

Assessment of microbial carbon pool in chernozem and sod-podzolic soil of different types of agricultural land use by luminescence microscopy method

Бюллетень Почвенного института им. В.В. Докучаева
Microbial biomass carbon (Cmic) is a biologically active pool of soil organic matter and a sensitive indicator that responds to changes in land use much earlier than total organic carbon content and other pools within it.

Spores-on-a-chip: new frontiers for spore research

Trends in Microbiology, 2022
In recent years, microfluidic technologies have become widespread in biological science. However, the suitability of this technique for understanding different aspects of spore research has hardly been considered. Herein, we review recent developments in 'spores-on-a-chip' technologies, highlighting how they could be exploited to drive new frontiers in

GbWAKL20 Phosphorylates GbNFYB8 to Modulate Verticillium Wilt Resistance in Cotton

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Wall‐associated receptor‐like kinases (WAKLs) play pivotal roles in extracellular–intracellular signal transduction. Upon sensing Verticillium dahliae infestation at the plasma membrane, GbWAKL20 accumulates and transmits signals to the nucleus via endoplasmic reticulum‐mediated Golgi vesicle transport.
