Long‐Term Cultivation of Perennial Energy Crops Enhance Ecosystem Multifunctionality on Marginal Red Soil Without Trade‐Offs

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 7, July 2026.
Switchgrass (SG) and Miscanthus (MS) boost ecosystem multifunctionality in marginal soils. Strong synergies, not trade‐offs, exist among ecosystem services under SG and MS. MS surpasses SG in provisioning and supporting services for higher multifunctionality. MS is ideal for maximizing multifunctionality, carbon sequestration, and stability.

Thermostability of β‐xylosidase from Aspergillus sydowii MG49 [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1993
Heating of Aspergillus β‐xylosidase at 85°C ± 1°C and pH 5.5–6.0 (optimum for activity), causes irreversible, covalent thermoinactivation of the enzyme, involving oxidation of the thiol groups that are required for catalysis. Exogenous addition of cysteine, DTT, GSH and mercaptoethanol stabilizes the enzyme by extending its half‐life.

Toward Efficient Cellulosic Biomass Breakdown: Enzymatic Innovation and Kinetic Insights

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 6, June 2026.
By combining a processive GH7, CBM2a, and GH3 into single enzyme, the GCG fusion protein effectively breaks down crystalline cellulose. This tri‐domain architecture reduces cellobiose inhibition at the cellulose surface allowing for the simultaneous targeting of the substrate, depolymerization, and removal of products.

An Integrated Assessment of European Soil Health and Restoration Potential

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Soils host a significant proportion of biodiversity on Earth providing ecosystem functions vital to human well‐being, making it imperative to include them and their ecological features when addressing sustainability goals. We performed a comprehensive assessment of soil health across Europe by explicitly integrating biotic and abiotic ...

Transcriptomic analysis reveals the hepatic response mechanisms of the Chinese spiny frog (Quasipaa spinosa) to Citrobacter freundii infection

open access: yesJournal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract To elucidate the pathogen and host response mechanisms underlying mass mortality in Quasipaa spinosa, dominant bacteria were isolated from diseased individuals and identified as Citrobacter freundii by morphological, physiological, and biochemical characterization, 16S rRNA sequencing, and phylogenetic analysis.

Molecular cloning, expression, and characterization of four novel thermo-alkaliphilic enzymes retrieved from a metagenomic library

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2017
Background Enzyme discovery is a promising approach to aid in the deconstruction of recalcitrant plant biomass in an industrial process. Novel enzymes can be readily discovered by applying metagenomics on whole microbiomes.
