Microbial Colonization and Degradation of Microplastics
Plastics are one of the most harmful synthetic materials that are commonly used because of their strength, flexibility, and low cost. These widely... -
Colonization: Individual Traits of Colonists and Population Processes
AbstractHuman activity generates new global processes, including range expansions caused by landscape transformations, climate change, and biological...

Prescribed fire promotes colonization by the Florida bog frog
BackgroundUnderstanding the link between prescribed fire and occupancy dynamics can aid in managing at-risk species. Knowledge of how fire return...

The role of bacterial metabolism in human gut colonization
Can we anticipate the emergence of the next pandemic antibiotic-resistant bacterial clone? Addressing such an ambitious question relies on our...

Dynamics of gut colonization by commensal and pathogenic bacteria that attach to the intestinal epithelium
Bacterial adherence to the intestinal epithelium plays a role in niche establishment in the gut lumen. Through sampling natural populations of Caenorhabditis...

Lymphotoxin-β promotes breast cancer bone metastasis colonization and osteolytic outgrowth
Bone metastasis is a lethal consequence of breast cancer. Here we used single-cell transcriptomics to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying...

Soil eutrophication reduces fungal colonization in Berberis microphylla roots in Patagonia (Argentina)
Soil eutrophication can trigger drastic changes in biological interactions. However, it is not clear, particularly in forest ecosystems, how...

Cell-intrinsic and microenvironmental determinants of metastatic colonization
Cancer metastasis is a biologically complex process that remains a major challenge in the oncology clinic, accounting for nearly all of the mortality...

Effects of flushing flow on periphytic algal community at different colonization stages
Global climate change has led to periphytic algal overgrowth in water diversion canals, causing clogging issues and water quality deterioration....

Colonization of mudflat substrate by microarthropods: the role of distance, inundation frequency and body size
Salt marshes represent a unique ecosystem at the marine-terrestrial boundary of shallow protected coastlines. Microarthropods form an essential...

Improving ectomycorrhizal colonization and morpho-physiological traits of Pinus cooperi seedlings through organic nitrogen fertilization
Mycorrhizal associations play a crucial role in afforestation efforts, as they enhance the acquisition of nutrients and water, thereby supporting...

Mechanism allowing biochar to aid in arbuscular mycorrhizal colonization in Panax quinquefolius L. roots and improve secondary metabolite production
Panax quinquefoliusL, a medicinal plant of the family Araliaceae, has been used in China for more than 300 years. The quality of its medicinal...

Surface instability driven by wetting-drying cycles hinders the colonization by biocrusts in Tabernas Desert
Catchment asymmetry in the Tabernas Desert suggests a relatively greater instability in the sunnier hillslope in a very early stage of catchment...

3D-Bioprinted Urinary Catheters Enable Sustained Probiotic Recovery Under Flow and Improve Bladder Colonization In Vivo
Catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) account for a large proportion of healthcare-associated infections. CAUTIs, caused by...

A case study of sequential colonization: intra- and interspecific patterns of recovery in a hydrologically pulsed ecosystem
Community assembly is influenced by disturbance intensity, sequential colonization (arrival order) of species, and interactions between species...

Hybrid Pennisetum colonization by Bacillus megaterium BM18-2 labeled with green fluorescent protein (GFP) under Cd stress
Researchers have reported that Bacillus megateriumBM18-2 reduces Cd toxicity in Hybrid Pennisetum, but understanding the interaction between plants...

Genome-wide identification of root colonization fitness genes in plant growth promoting Pseudomonas asiatica employing transposon-insertion sequencing
BackgroundPseudomonasspp. are well-studied plant growth promoters, particularly in the context of root colonization. However, the specific genetic...

AM fungus plant colonization rather than an Epichloë endophyte attracts fall armyworm feeding
Most cold–season grasses can be colonized by belowground arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi and foliar grass endophytes (Epichloë) simultaneously...
