Environmental and Spatial Processes Drive the Phylogenetic Diversity and Structure of Planktonic Microeukaryotes Revealed by 18S rDNA Metabarcoding in a Tropical Floodplain
Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.The community structure of photosynthetic planktonic microeukaryotes in the floodplain lakes of the Tocantins‐Araguaia River basin is influenced by a combination of environmental filters and spatial processes. Phylogenetic information from this community highlights the importance of conserving less degraded areas to preserve the evolutionary diversity ...Jocilaine Santos de Jesus, João Carlos Nabout, Priscilla de Carvalho, Ludgero Cardoso Galli Vieira, Cíntia Pelegrineti Targueta, Diego Ortiz da Silva, Mariana Pires de Campos Telles, José Alexandre Felizola Diniz‐Filho, Thannya Nascimento Soares +8 morewiley +1 more sourceGeomorphic Effectiveness of an Extreme Flood in a Mountain River: Evidence From Pre‐ and Post‐Event Surveys in a Subtropical Region of Southern Brazil
Hydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2026.The extreme flooding of April 2024 caused a complete “geomorphic reset”, resulting in a 24% widening of the channel and a transition to critical or supercritical flow regimes. The energy of the event broke through the stable armouring layer, reducing the armouring ratio from 7.9 to 4.9 and intensely removing fine sediments from the subsurface.Gabriel Augusto Feyh, Jean Paolo Gomes Minella, Eno Darci Saatkamp, Lidiane Buligon, Gustavo Henrique Merten, Felipe Bernardi, Cristiano Carvalho da Silva, Angelo Garcia Costa, Alice Prates Bisso Dambroz +8 morewiley +1 more sourceOptimized Protocol for the Isolation of UHMWPE Wear Debris by Lyophilization and Chemometric Identification (EDS/PCA)
Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials, Volume 114, Issue 5, May 2026.An optimized protocol combining serum lyophilization, solid‐state alkaline digestion, and PCA‐assisted EDS analysis was validated for the analysis of UHMWPE wear debris. The method increased recovery yield by 20‐fold compared to liquid digestion and preserved particle morphology.Luis Antonio da Costa Bento, Vanessa Kapps, Rafael Mello Trommer, Bráulio Soares Archanjo, José Mauro Granjeiro, Marcia Marie Maru de Moraes +5 morewiley +1 more sourceEmergence and Genomic Characterization of a Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolate From a New Clone in Brazil
Microbiology and Immunology, Volume 70, Issue 5, Page 261-267, May 2026.ABSTRACT
Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp) has emerged globally as a major public health concern, often associated with severe community‐acquired and healthcare‐associated human infections. Despite alerts from PAHO/WHO on convergent hvKp strains with multidrug resistance in Latin America, comprehensive data from Brazil, the region's largest ...Carlos Henrique Camargo, Ana Beatriz Nascimento Costa, Amanda Yaeko Yamada, Daniel de Sena Miranda, Pedro Smith Pereira Ferraro, Andreia Rodrigues de Souza, Amanda Maria de Jesus Bertani, Karoline Rodrigues Campos, Marlon Benedito Nascimento Santos, Rafaela Mastrangelo Rissetti, Carolina Lechinski de Paula, Patrik Júnior de Lima Paz, Maria Solange Duarte Soares, Christiane Salvador, Giovanna de Pinho Pieri, Jorge Siguemassa Higa, Daniela dos Santos Souza, Márcio Garcia Ribeiro, Claudio Tavares Sacchi, Monique Ribeiro Tiba‐Casas, Geraldine Madalosso, Denise Brandao de Assis +21 morewiley +1 more sourceBIEN: A biodiversity informatics ecosystem advancing open and reproducible workflows for plant observation, plot and trait data
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1556-1584, May 2026.Abstract The rapid expansion of biodiversity data presents new opportunities to understand and forecast biosphere dynamics. However, disparate and dispersed data, taxonomic and geographic inconsistencies, pervasive quality issues, and a lack of reproducable workflows hinder synthesis, introduce biases and limit accurate assessment of biodiversity ...Brian J.

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 9, Page 2772-2793, May 2026.The Xanthomonas citri Hanks‐type kinase PknS autophosphorylates and directly phosphorylates the alternative sigma factor EcfK at five residues. Besides the conserved residue T51 in the σ2 domain, phosphorylation of a residue in the linker between σ2 and σ4 is critical for EcfK activation by promoting its interaction with a positively charged pocket in ...Lídia dos Passos Lima, Dev Sriranganadane, Daiane Laise da Silva, Natália C.

International Endodontic Journal, Volume 59, Issue 5, Page 873-889, May 2026.ABSTRACT Aim
To investigate whether moderate systemic caffeine intake modulates the progression of apical periodontitis (AP) and associated alveolar bone loss, combining in vivo rat experiments with in silico molecular docking to explore potential mechanisms. Methodology
