A phenotype‐based framework to measure functional redundancy in microbial ecosystems

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 11, Page 3118-3135, November 2026.
Abstract Functional redundancy is a key biological concept that offers critical insights into microbial ecosystem stability and responses to environmental perturbations. Existing methods to quantify redundancy typically rely on gene annotations as functional units, limiting their ability to capture complex or partially characterised traits and making ...

Environmental drivers influencing the ambrosia beetle community: The primary role of geographic and climatic drivers in chestnut‐growing areas

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 4, Page 575-587, November 2026.
Ethanol‐baited traps were placed in cultivated chestnut orchards (a) and mixed environments with assorted tree composition (b), over a 2‐year monitoring period in two valleys (NW Italy). A total of 118,286 ambrosia beetles was collected, representing six species.

Simultaneous modification of Thermotoga maritima encapsulin subunits to produce multivalent nanoparticle vaccines for non‐typhoidal Salmonella enterica

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 21, Page 6374-6394, November 2026.
This study investigates the modularity of encapsulin—a protein nanoparticle—by simultaneously inserting up to four distinct Salmonella epitopes within the encapsulin subunit. The encapsulin variants were transiently expressed in plants where they assembled into nanoparticles; however, their accumulation and stability varied depending on the ...

Impact Crater Hydrothermal Systems Support Rapid Microbial Enrichment and Diverse Metabolic Potential

Geobiology, Volume 24, Issue 6, November/December 2026.
ABSTRACT Impact crater hydrothermal systems, formed after asteroid and comet impacts, have been proposed as promising habitats for life on early Earth and as key targets in the search for life on planetary bodies such as Mars, since they provide liquid water and active geochemical turnover.

In Planta Expression of Thermophilic GtGBE Mimics BEIIb and Modifies Rice Starch Structure Without Yield Penalties

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 5729-5740, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Enzymatic modification using glycosyltransferases offers a green route to produce highly branched starch to enhance starch functionality in the food industry, yet this approach faces challenges including the high cost of enzyme production and inefficiency.

Commodity risk assessment of sawn birch wood from Canada produced under systems approaches targeting Agrilus anxius

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract The European Commission requested the EFSA Panel on Plant Health to deliver a risk assessment on the likelihood of pest freedom from Agrilus anxius of wood of Betula papyrifera and Betula alleghaniensis originating or processed in Canada and subject to two different systems approaches as described in the Dossier submitted by the applicant ...

Structural Snapshots of F1‐ATPase Catalysis in Drug Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii Reveal Novel Therapeutic Targets

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 20, 31 October 2026.
The different Abε's CTD states act as different “gears” to modulate ATP synthesis/hydrolysis, allowing the cell to adapt to environmental changes. Under unfavorable conditions, ATP synthesis is maintained while hydrolysis is inhibited through extended εCTD (low‐gear mode).

Cytoplasmic Lipid Membrane Biogenesis in Prokaryotes: From Soluble Lipid Building Blocks to a Dynamic and Functional Boundary Layer

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.
Lipid membranes are fundamental to all prokaryotic life. Besides acting as barrier, by orienting as hydrophobic bilayer, lipids are involved in a wide variety of other cellular processes. As a consequence, prokaryotic membranes are dynamic entities that switch their lipid composition as required; a process that requires tight interplay with the lipid ...
