Topographic and Climatic Determinants of Soil Organic Carbon Across Landscapes: A Meta‐Analysis

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The soil is the greatest natural store of organic carbon, holding between 1500 to 1550 Pg C of organic carbon at the top 100 cm of the soil globally—roughly twice the carbon pool in the atmosphere. The spatial distribution of this stock is controlled by a complex chain of controls: topographic position regulates the hydrological redistribution,

Seasonal Dynamics of Soil Multitrophic Biodiversity, Co‐Occurrence Network and Assembly Mechanisms Under Typical Vegetation Restoration Patterns in Karst Region

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Previous studies often overlooked the dynamic effects of karst vegetation restoration on soil multi‐trophic biodiversity and the underlying community‐assembly mechanisms. To fill this gap, we performed a seasonal comparative analysis of soil biodiversity, co‐occurrence network architecture, and assembly processes across three representative ...

Flow cytometric phytoplankton concentration and optical properties across instruments and laboratories

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Flow cytometry measures the optical properties of individual cells and has become essential for enumerating and characterizing marine phytoplankton. Yet systematic comparison of measurements across instruments remains limited, hampering data comparison across laboratories and long‐term time series.

Decoding Molecular Mechanisms of Pongamia pinnata Phytochemicals in Cancer Therapy

Medicine Advances, EarlyView.
Pongamia pinnata phytochemicals have multiple anticancer mechanisms, including antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, anti‐metastatic, and apoptosis‐inducing activities through molecular‐level regulation. These bioactive compounds protect normal cells from oxidative stress while promoting reactive oxygen species‐mediated tumor cell death and suppressing ...

Ecosystem retrogression enhances cross‐domain microbial stability and increases the genetic potential for nutrient cycling

mLife, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecosystem retrogression drives nutrient depletion, reduced productivity, and profound reorganization of soil microbial communities. Using amplicon sequencing and genome‐resolved metagenomics, we examined how cross‐domain microbial networks and functional gene potential respond to long‐term phosphorus and nitrogen limitation along the well ...

The complete chloroplast genomes of four Aspidopterys species and a comparison with other Malpighiaceae species

Scientific Reports
The genus Aspidopterys has multiple functions in medicine, food and ecological restoration. Due to the similar morphological characteristics of some species and the limited genomic information hinder the studies on germplasm identification and molecular ...

Begonia quadricornualata sp. nov. (Begoniaceae) from India

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
A new species of Begonia L. (Begoniaceae) belonging to sect. Platycentrum is described from the Papum Pare District of Arunachal Pradesh, India. This new species is distinguished by its dense, long, red to brown hispid hairs on the adaxial leaf surface of female plants, caducous stipules and bracts, and solitary‐flowered female inflorescence ...

Taxonomic revision of the genus Tzveleviochloa (Poaceae, Aveninae) in India

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
The taxonomy of Tzveleviochloa in India is revised based on morphological evidence, comprehensive observations of herbarium specimens and field records, and several botanical explorations in the study area. The accepted diversity is increased from two to five species, including two recently described species. The genus is distributed in the Western and
