Spore-based arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal community in an olive cultivation area in southern Brazil - Arthur Joanello Cemin; Vagner Luiz Graeff-Filho; José Pedro Spies Nolibos; Ezequiel Cesar Carvalho Miola; Paulo Mello-Farias; Vanessa Sacramento Cerqueira (Archives of Microbiology, 2026)
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), belonging to the phylum Glomeromycota, establish symbiotic associations with approximately 90% of terrestrial plant species and play a key role in nutrient acquisition, tolerance to abiotic stresses, and agroecosystem functioning. Although olive cultivation has expanded in southern Brazil, information on native AMF communities associated with this crop remains scarce. This study characterized the AMF community associated with the rhizosphere of the olive cultivars Arbequina, Coratina, and Picual cultivated in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Soil sampling was conducted in February 2025, during the summer dry season, when trees were in a vegetative growth, were not flowering or fruiting. Because AMF sporulation may vary according to host phenology and seasonal environmental conditions, the present survey reflects fungal communities under vegetative growth during the dry season. Spores were extracted by wet sieving and identified based on morphological characteristics. Six species belonging to five genera: Acaulospora koskei, Glomus ambisporum , Diversispora globifera , Gigaspora decipiens , Gigaspora rosea, and Scutellospora calospora . G . ambisporum was dominant in all cultivars. Differences among cultivars were observed for G. decipiens, D. globifera, and G. rosea . Cultivar identity explained 56.2% of the total compositional variation. Coratina showed lower evenness due to the dominance of G. ambisporum . SIMPER analysis indicated that G. ambisporum and G. decipiens accounted for 59.7% of the dissimilarity between Arbequina and Coratina. This study represents the first inventory of AMF associated with olive rhizospheres in southern Brazil and provides a basis for selecting native isolates for future inoculant development.

Tapered drip laterals for sloping agricultural fields - Giorgio Baiamonte; Girolamo Vaccaro (Irrigation Science, 2026)
Tapered drip laterals offer a promising solution to enhance hydraulic performance and reduce energy consumption in horizontal or sloping agricultural fields. However, their design typically relies on iterative numerical procedures, which limit their practical implementation. This study develops a fully analytical framework for the hydraulic design of dual-diameter tapered drip laterals installed on downhill slopes. The methodology is based on a normalised pressure head formulation that enables the explicit derivation of pressure head distribution and directly embeds pressure head tolerance criteria to limit emitter flow-rate variability across the entire lateral, without requiring iterative computations. A new pressure head tolerance is introduced at the diameter-change point, DCP , leading to three distinct pressure head distribution patterns and providing a systematic basis for selecting DCP and upstream diameter. The analytical procedure is validated against the exact step-by-step numerical method that relaxes the assumption of uniform emitter discharge. Relative errors in characteristic pressure heads remained below 0.81 %, while deviations in hydraulic performance indicators were negligible for practical design purposes. Application to representative case studies demonstrates that properly designed tapered laterals can reduce the required inlet pressure head by more than 60 % compared with equivalent one-diameter configurations, resulting in substantial energy savings and reduced pumping requirements. The analytical framework provides a practical and reliable tool for optimising the hydraulic and energetic performance of tapered drip laterals on sloping terrain.

Carbon and Nitrogen Stocks in the Surface Mixed Layer of Seagrass Meadow Sediments across the Northern Gulf of Mexico - Kyle Capistrant-Fossa; Kelly Darnell; Kenneth Dunton (Estuaries and Coasts, 2026)
The Northern Gulf of Mexico (nGOM) is a hotspot for blue carbon biogeochemical cycles due to its ability to fix and sequester blue carbon and potential to mitigate rising atmospheric CO $$_2$$ concentrations. In this study, we employed a dataset containing >1100 sediment cores collected from seagrass beds paired with publicly available data to estimate C and N stocks within the surface mixed layer of seagrass meadows. Sediments directly beneath seagrasses were less dense (0.98 ± 0.23 g cm $$^{-3}$$ ) but contained more combustible matter (11.27 ± 6.99%) than surrounding bare patches, and the amount significant varied among seagrass species. We estimate that seagrasses contribute about half of sedimentary organic carbon across the region, but there is substantial variability in sources among bays. Sediments had more inorganic (6 ± 4.97%) matter than organic matter (4.38 ± 3.39%), and inorganic carbon stocks appear to be lower than those in other parts of the world. The upper 10 cm of sediment with seagrass beds across the nGOM are estimated to contain as much as 7.03 and 0.43 Tg of C and N, respectively, affirming their importance within global biogeochemical cycles.

Escaping the Density Trap: Estuarine Connectivity Supports Juvenile River Herring Growth - Julian D. Burgoff; Allison H. Roy; Douglas Bishop; Jason Stolarski; Adrian Jordaan (Estuaries and Coasts, 2026)
Alewife ( Alosa pseudoharengus ) and blueback herring ( A. aestivalis ) require connectivity among freshwater, estuarine, and marine environments to complete their life cycle. Impediments to watershed connectivity are major drivers of population declines along the eastern United States, where physical barriers and low-flow conditions can inhibit or delay juvenile outmigration, limiting access to productive estuarine nursery habitats. Because juvenile growth strongly influences early survival and recruitment, understanding how connectivity to estuaries shapes growth across nursery habitats is critical but remains poorly understood. We evaluated juvenile river herring growth across connected lake, river, and estuary habitats in three coastal Massachusetts watersheds from 2021 to 2023. Juvenile fish and water quality were sampled throughout each summer, and sagittal otoliths were used to estimate growth rates. Juvenile growth was enhanced in downstream estuarine habitats where connectivity was intact and in-lake juvenile densities were high, as observed in the Weymouth Back River watershed. In contrast, growth limitations occurred in a high-density system with restricted passage, where juveniles occupied shallow, eutrophic river reaches in the Mystic River watershed. Growth rates were similar between lake and estuarine habitats in a low-density system (Essex River watershed), indicating that estuarine benefits to growth are context dependent. Together, these results demonstrate that connectivity to estuarine habitats can alleviate density-dependent growth constraints, but that barriers and delayed outmigration to estuaries can limit these benefits. Maintaining or restoring functional freshwater–estuarine connectivity is therefore critical for sustaining juvenile production and provides a clear management priority for municipalities, state and federal agencies, and watershed managers working to restore river herring populations in fragmented coastal systems.

Burkholderia arboris bacteremia initially identified as Burkholderia cepacia complex: a genome-based case report - Kazuhiro Itoh; Amane Tanaka; Daiki Maruno; Hiroshi Tsutani; Nozomi Otsuki; Atsushi Kuwata; Chiyo Kiriba; Yoshimasa Urasaki; Masamichi Ikawa; Hiromichi Iwasaki; Yasuhiko Mitsuke (Archives of Microbiology, 2026)
We report a bloodstream Burkholderia arboris isolate from a 75-year-old man without cystic fibrosis. The organism was recovered from both aerobic bottles of two separately collected blood-culture sets and was initially assigned to the Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization–time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Whole-genome sequencing yielded three circular chromosomes and one circular plasmid. DFAST_QC identified B. arboris as the only type-strain match above the species threshold, with an average nucleotide identity of 99.48%; the next-highest match was B. seminalis at 93.33%. Multilocus sequence typing identified ST-2575, and ResFinder detected no acquired antimicrobial resistance genes. The patient improved after 14 days of meropenem therapy without recurrent B. arboris bacteremia. This report adds a clinically supported bloodstream infection, a complete genome resource, and detailed susceptibility data, while illustrating the importance of up-to-date reference genomes for species-level interpretation of unusual Bcc isolates.

Ceratocystis paradoxa is a polyphagous, soil-borne pathogen that threatens various crops worldwide. This study evaluated soil suppressiveness against C. paradoxa and identified key biotic and abiotic factors involved. Suppressiveness was assessed using banana peel baits, followed by comparative analysis of microbial communities and soil physicochemical properties in five suppressive and five conducive soils. Suppressive soils exhibited higher culturable bacterial populations and enrichment of Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, and Acidobacteria, particularly Solirubrobacter, Actinoplanes, and Conexibacter. Favorable physicochemical traits included higher pH, calcium content, cation exchange capacity, base saturation, and sand content. Calcium carbonate amendments enhanced suppressiveness, particularly at pH 7.0. Transferring the microbiota from suppressive soils to conducive subsoils, combined with calcium carbonate, also induced suppressiveness. These results highlight the synergistic role of microbial communities and soil chemistry, particularly pH and calcium in pathogen suppression. Calcium promoted microbial activity and stabilized pH, contributing to reduced disease incidence. This integrated strategy offers a promising avenue for sustainable management of C. paradoxa in tropical agriculture through microbiome manipulation and soil amendments.
