Microsco-pi: a novel and inexpensive way of merging biology and IT [PDF]
It is well known that schools and colleges often have budget limitations that can hamper the effectiveness of practical education. This article looks at how cheap, off-the-shelf components can be used to produce a simple DIY digital microscope, and how ...

Diverse living microbial communities showing stacked mats and finger‐like branching examples that grow with the support of reed grass (phytomicrobialites) as well as aragonitic stromatolitic tufa have been rediscovered in the alkaline and hypersaline Lake Nuoertu in the Badain Jaran Desert N. China.

Epitranscriptomics as a Candidate Universal Modulator of Dormancy Transitions
Dormancy is presented as a conserved, reversible survival program in which epitranscriptomic RNA modifications are proposed to provide a rapid, energy‐efficient layer that establishes, maintains, and terminates the state by modulating mRNA stability, translation, and localization.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Echiniscus testudo (Heterotardigrada: Echiniscidae)
The complete mitchondrial genome of Echiniscus testudo, a cosmopolitan heterotardigrade collected in Japan, has been sequenced using a single molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing long read after whole genome amplification from a single individual.

Primary producers shape terrestrial biodiversity, but most research has focused on vascular plants, while the role of cryptogams (mosses, lichens and algae) remains under‐explored. Cryptogams dominate Antarctic vegetation and support diverse microarthropod communities. However, how cryptogam traits influence these communities remains poorly understood.

ABSTRACT Developments in the environmental DNA (eDNA) field have revolutionised our ability to map biodiversity by providing cost‐effective and non‐invasive means to survey organisms across the tree of life. In the terrestrial realm, a variety of eDNA sources have been employed, but we lack easily accessible and cosmopolitan sources of terrestrial eDNA.
