Dietary essential oils modulate post‐mortem oxidative damage in trout fillets exposed to slaughter stress during frozen storage

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 6, Page 3686-3695, April 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Slaughter is a critical phase in aquaculture that can severely compromise both animal welfare and product quality. Stress responses triggered during this stage may accelerate post‐mortem biochemical degradation and promote oxidative damage in fish fillets. Essential oils, known for their antioxidant and anti‐inflammatory properties,

Acetyl‐Phosphate Dependent Protein Acetylation in Neisseria gonorrhoeae

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.
The role of acetyl‐phosphate‐dependent non‐enzymatic protein acetylation in Neisseria gonorrhoeae was investigated through the deletion of the phosphotransacetylase (pta) and the acetate kinase (ackA) genes, this led to a decrease and increase in protein acetylation, respectively.

Breeding cold‐tolerant Orius laevigatus lines improves thermal tolerance and body size: implications for biological control

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 3011-3018, April 2026.
Biological control agents performance is influenced by temperature. Two cold‐tolerant lines of O. loevigatus were developed, improving their fitness at both low and high temperatures, offering advantages far augmentative biological control. Abstract BACKGROUND The performance of biological control agents (BCAs) is strongly influenced by environmental ...

Multi‐Metallic Organic Framework‐Based Composites as Electrocatalysts

Small, Volume 22, Issue 19, 1 April 2026.
Multi‐metallic organic framework (MMOF) composites and their derivatives offer a versatile platform for electrocatalysis by coupling abundant active sites with improved conductivity and stability. This review summarizes recent advances in MMOF‐based heterostructures with metal, carbon, and multi‐partner components, highlighting synergistic interactions

Biodiversity and soil type modulate the effect of plastic contamination on soil functioning

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 4, April 2026.
Our findings show that the negative effects of plastic contamination on soil functioning strongly depend on soil type and can be partly alleviated by plant diversity. In sandy soils, diverse plant communities buffered functional losses under plastic stress, whereas in clayey soils the benefits of diversity were suppressed.

Towards a Novel Biocontrol Strategy: High Performance of Optimised Cell Wall‐Degrading Enzymes Secreted by Escovopsis primorosea LBM 277

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
Escovopsis primorosea LBM 277 efficiently produced proteases, β‐1,3‐glucanases and chitinases under submerged fermentation using Leucoagaricus gongylophorus cell walls and Mandels complex. RSM‐BBD optimization significantly increased enzyme activity. The enzymatic cocktail remained stable for 30 days at room temperature and pH 4–6, aligning with the ...

The Role of Technology Standards in Strategic Hedging

Asian Politics &Policy, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This article argues that technology standards provide Southeast Asian states with a distinct mechanism for hedging amid intensifying US–China technological rivalry. Traditional hedging strategies emphasizing economic engagement without political alignment are increasingly constrained by the weaponization of technological interdependence ...

Using miniaturized laboratory equipment and DNA barcoding to improve conservation genetics training and identify illegally traded species

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Illegal wildlife trade (IWT) is one of the largest global illegal activities, and it negatively affects biodiversity and sustainable development worldwide. DNA barcoding coupled with high‐throughput sequencing (i.e., metabarcoding) is useful in identifying taxa affected by IWT and has been used routinely for decades.

In vitro culture, cryopreservation, and field reintroduction of the endangered Mingan thistle

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Current plant conservation efforts are hindered by, for example, poor seed germination, low viability, and insufficient propagation and preservation technologies. To address these problems, we devised an approach to plant conservation that integrates conservation, preservation, and restoration (CPR), which uses advanced in vitro techniques. We

Desymmetrization of Malonic Monoesters and Malonic Acids via Enantioselective Catalytic C(sp3)─H Oxidation

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 13, 23 March 2026.
Manganese‐catalyzed enantioselective C(sp3)─H lactonization with hydrogen peroxide enables the direct desymmetrization of malonic monoesters and malonic acids, providing highly enantioenriched γ‐ and δ‐lactones (up to >99% ee) ABSTRACT Malonate derivatives are readily available starting materials widely employed in the synthesis of bioactive compounds.
