The Mearim River, located in the Northeast region of Brazil, constitutes a hydrographic basin of considerable socioeconomic and ecological importance and is characterized by a high diversity of fish species, including several endemics. However, most studies conducted in this basin have focused predominantly on taxonomic surveys and species inventories. Consequently, knowledge regarding the genetic characterization of the species that compose its ichthyofauna remains limited. To address this gap, the present study employed DNA barcoding to identify and characterize the ichthyofaunal diversity of the Mearim River basin and its tributaries. An average of 20 campaigns trips were conducted between 2014 and 2020, resulting in the capture of 2,412 individuals. A total of 914 sequences were obtained for a 640 bp (bp) fragment of the mitochondrial COI gene, corresponding to 74 species, 67 genera, 33 families, and 10 orders. Molecular species delimitation analyses recovered between 74 and 77 operational taxonomic units (OTUs). According to the ASAP, bPTP, and GMYC models, there was an increase in molecular entities compared to the number of species identified using morphological criteria, indicating the presence of hidden diversity and potential misidentifications. In contrast, the ABGD method recovered a number of molecular entities equivalent to the total number of species delimited based on morphological criteria. The results obtained in this study contribute significantly to reducing knowledge gaps regarding the genetic diversity of species for which no information was previously available in this basin, providing support for the development of management and conservation strategies for regional fisheries resources.

Rocio virus sustained circulation in Brazil: first infection case in a horse highlights the need for enhanced arbovirus surveillance - Tiago Gräf; Maria Constanza Rodriguez; Yara de Oliveira Brandão; Carla Adriane Royer; Caroline do Nascimento Ferreira; Camila Confortin; Camila Zanluca; Daisy Maria Strottmann; Claudia Nunes Duarte dos Santos; Mara Eliza Gasino Joineau (Archives of Virology, 2026)
Rocio virus (ROCV), a neurotropic arbovirus of the Orthoflavivirus genus, caused Brazil’s largest encephalitis outbreak in the 1970s but has since been rarely detected. We report the first ROCV encephalitis clinical case after nearly 40 years and isolated and sequenced the virus from CNS tissue of a horse. Metatranscriptomics enabled full-genome sequencing, revealing divergence from the reference sequence at an evolutionary rate of 5.8–7.0 × 10⁻⁴, consistent with Orthoflavivirus . Thirty-one non-synonymous substitutions were identified, with the envelope protein most affected. Findings indicate ROCV cryptic circulation and ongoing evolution. Horses may act as sentinels, underscoring the need for strengthened ROCV genomic surveillance.

Further Description and First Genetic Characterization of Oswaldofilaria bacillaris (Nematoda: Onchocercidae) Infecting the Pantanal Caiman (Caiman yacare), with Insights into the Phylogeny of Oswaldofilaria - Glória M. C. Lacerda; Gustavo M. do Carmo; Lorena G. Ailán-Choke; Fernando Paiva; Luiz E. R. Tavares; João A. de Araújo-Filho; Samuel C. Ribeiro; Felipe B. Pereira (Acta Parasitologica, 2026)
Purpose Oswaldofilaria bacillaris is the type species of the genus, but its morphology remains little known and partially contradictory. Moreover, there are no genetic data and scanning electron microscopical observations on the species, like in most Oswaldofilaria spp. The phylogenetic relationships among Oswaldofilaria spp. are practically unknown. This study aimed to evaluate the detailed morphology of O . bacillaris , provide its first genetic characterization, and discuss the phylogenetic relationships within Oswaldofilaria . Methods Parasites infecting the body cavity of Caiman yacare in Pantanal wetlands, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil, were collected and processed for morphological studies using light and scanning electron microscopy. Genetic characterization was based on partial sequences of 18S and 28S rDNA. A phylogeny was reconstructed based on 28S sequences including all Oswaldofilaria available. Results Nematodes were assigned to O . bacillaris mainly based on the oral opening markedly displaced ventrally. Males had seven pairs of caudal papillae encircling the cloaca, and their two most posterior pairs were hardly visible, which is also characteristic in other congeners. Moreover, a delicate area rugosa previously unreported in the species was observed. Oswaldofilaria bacillaris formed a monophyletic assemblage with the congeners, being sister to O . chabaudi , and O . petersi was basal, these last two parasites of lizards. Conclusion The present findings strengthened the specific diagnosis of O . bacillaris and elucidated the morphological contradictions. The phylogeny reinforced the hypotheses that Oswaldofilaria emerged in lizards and colonized crocodilians by host switch, and reduction in number of caudal papillae in males is a derived feature.

(Irrigation and Drainage, 2026)
This study evaluated the growth, forage production, soil water balance, water indices, biological efficiency and competitive capacity of forage cactus and maize in monoculture and intercropping, with or without mulch. The experiment was conducted in Serra Talhada, Pernambuco, Brazil, using the cactus clone ‘Orelha de Elefante Mexicana’ (OEM) and the hybrid maize ‘Feroz VIP’. The first and second forage cactus cycles were from October 2020 to August 2021 and August 2021 to June 2022, respectively. Each forage cactus cycle was followed by two maize cycles. Treatments were arranged in randomized blocks with four replicates, comprising: (i) single maize and cactus without ground cover; (ii) single maize and cactus with ground cover; (iii) intercropping cactus‐maize without ground cover; and (iv) intercropping cactus‐maize with ground cover. Biometric and biomass assessments quantified morphophysiological indices, phenology, cutting time, biological efficiency and competitive capacity, while soil moisture and water balance were monitored. The mulched system achieved yields of ~19.0 and 12.41 Mg ha −1 dry matter, and net incomes of US$ 1908 and 1914, evidencing its economic superiority. Water productivity and evapotranspiration efficiency were also improved under cover. Combined cultivation of forage cactus and maize is recommended due to increased production, profitability and sustainability in semi‐arid environments.

Hyperdominant Trees Reveal Savanna Vulnerability Under Climate Change - Facundo Alvarez; Ben Hur Marimon‐Junior; Beatriz Schwantes Marimon; Wesley Jonatar Alves da Cruz; Norberto Gomes Ribeiro Júnior; Raiane Gonçalves Béu; Polyanna da Conceição Bispo; Aldair de Souza Medeiros; Glécio Machado Siqueira; Marcelo Leandro Bueno; Fabiana de Gois Aquino; Frederico Augusto Guimarães Guilherme; et al. (Global Change Biology, 2026)
The Cerrado biome, spanning ~2 million km 2 , is one of the most extensive and biodiverse tropical savannas, yet it is paradoxically dominated by only 30 hyperdominant tree species (~2% of all species, > 50% of all stems). However, their vulnerability to climate change and the effectiveness of current conservation efforts remain uncertain. By combining (i) species distribution models calibrated with edaphic‐climatic predictors and occurrence data for hyperdominant Cerrado trees with (ii) functional‐trait analyses related to ecological strategies (leaf economics, bark investment, ecophysiology, drought tolerance, regeneration, and dispersal), we identified the biomass production and reproductive traits that best predict species persistence under high‐emission scenarios (RCP8.5). Currently, only 427,980 km 2 (~17.4%) of the modeled potential environmental suitability falls within protected areas; under future climate scenarios, this protected suitable area is projected to decline by ~45.9% to 231,377 km 2 (~18.1%). This loss, resulting from land conversion with the expansion of agricultural frontiers and fire events, highlights a mismatch in current regional conservation priorities, overlooking the needs of the Cerrado and its associated biodiversity. Given ongoing land‐use change and that 58% of remaining native vegetation occurs on private lands, this mismatch highlights the urgent need to align conservation and agricultural policy. Functional trait analyses revealed a clear gradient from acquisitive “fast” to conservative “slow” strategies, reflecting trade‐offs in water‐use efficiency and biomass allocation, with leaf structural and reproductive traits best predicting species resilience to climate change. Our results indicate that a small subset of hyperdominant species not only forms current community structure but also signals the biome's resilience/vulnerability to climate change. Conservation planning should prioritize identified climate refuges and be based on functional traits to buffer the loss of functional and structural integrity in one of the world's richest and most threatened savanna ecosystems.

Expanding beyond the exome: identifying pediatric patients best suited for genome sequencing - Daniel Almeida do Valle; Beatriz de Haro Figueiredo; Gianna Cattoni Araldi; Giovana Pomin Barros Sachetim; Isabella Machado Barby; Lissa Ayumi Aihara; Mariana Romiti Ferreiro; Fabiana Antunes de Andrade; Mara Lúcia Schmitz Ferreira Santos; Michelle Silva Zeny; Josiane de Souza (Journal of Community Genetics, 2026)
Objective This study aimed to compare the diagnostic yield of genome sequencing (GS) versus exome sequencing (ES) in a pediatric population, with a focus on determining whether GS offers a significant advantage over ES in identifying genetic variants. Methods A retrospective analysis of prospectively allocated pediatric patients was performed on 297 pediatric patients who underwent next-generation sequencing. Of these, 59.6% (177) underwent only ES, 32.3% (96) underwent only GS, and 8.1% (24) had both tests. Diagnostic positivity rates were compared between ES and GS, and subgroup analyses were performed based on clinical characteristics. Results GS demonstrated a higher positivity rate (51.7%) compared to ES (42.8%), with a 95.8% concordance between tests in patients who underwent both. However, the added diagnostic yield of GS was less than 10%. Greater GS positivity was identified in a group of children with neurological, musculoskeletal, growth disorder and craniofacial anomalies. Deep intronic variants were identified in two cases that underwent GS, but only one had also undergone ES. Limitations in medical record completeness and data quality were noted, which could affect the study’s generalizability. Conclusion GS offered a modest increase in diagnostic yield over ES, particularly for detecting deep intronic variants. Some conditions had greater GS positivity, but the interpretation deserves caution as issues regarding homogeneity and sample selection may have influenced this result.

Fungi in sea turtles substrates - Gabriel da Silva Ferreira; Renan do Nascimento Barbosa; Luciana Gonçalves de Oliveira; Cristina Maria de Souza-Motta; Neiva Tinti de Oliveira; Henrique Douglas Melo Coutinho; Maria Betânia Melo de Oliveira (Biologia, 2026)
Fungi of the phylum Ascomycota , recognized for their extraordinary adaptability to extreme environments, play crucial ecological roles, particularly in sea turtle nests, where they are responsible for 61% of fungal occurrences. In this comprehensive review, we aim to synthesize current knowledge on the diversity, ecology, and pathogenicity of fungi associated with sea turtles and their nesting environments, with special attention to the genus Fusarium and its global distribution. We also seek to identify the main knowledge gaps and methodological challenges that hinder accurate species identification and comparative analyses across studies. This review analyzes the occurrence and interactions of fungi in different species of sea turtles, highlighting the prevalence of genera such as Fusarium , which have been associated with severe embryo mortality, significantly reducing hatching success. Despite the identification of 39 genera and approximately 70 species of fungi, underreporting and methodological variability between studies limit a comprehensive understanding of fungal interactions. Additionally, we emphasize the disharmonious interactions between fungi and turtles, particularly infections that compromise the health of these animals, often in association with bacterial coinfections. By establishing an overview of existing research and proposing standardized methodological approaches, this study provides a starting point for more systematic and long-term investigations that integrate environmental and climatic variables. Such efforts are essential to inform effective conservation strategies and to mitigate the growing threat that fungal infections pose to sea turtle populations worldwide.

Optimization of eco-friendly synthesis of emollient esters catalyzed by immobilized lipase on Accurel MP 1000 - Sabryna Couto Araujo; Eliézer Luz Do Espírito Santo; Igor Carvalho Fontes Sampaio; Márcia Soares Gonçalves; Erik Galvão Paranhos da Silva; Marcelo Franco; Julieta Rangel de Oliveira (Environmental Sustainability, 2026)
Efficient and reusable biocatalytic systems are essential for advancing greener routes for high-value ester synthesis. This study aimed to optimize the enzymatic synthesis of dodecyl stearate using lipase from Candida rugosa immobilized on Accurel MP 1000 (CRL-AMP), integrating enzyme immobilization and statistical modeling. The immobilization was realized by the physical adsorption method through interfacial activation of the lipase with a protein loading of 6.5 mg g −1 . A Doehlert experimental design was employed to investigate the effects of reaction time, biocatalyst loading, and agitation speed, utilizing octadecanoic acid and dodecan-1-ol in heptane (1:1). The optimized conditions (14.58% w v −1 biocatalyst, 40 min, 212.5 rpm) led to a conversion of 80.32%, with a low relative error ( < 5%). The statistical model showed strong predictive capacity (R 2 = 0.9451) and non-significant lack-of-fit ( p > 0.05), validating the experimental design. Linear, quadratic, and interaction effects were statistically significant, with agitation speed and enzyme concentration having the greatest influence on conversion. Biocatalytic evaluation revealed a concentration-dependent behavior, with particle agglomeration and diffusional limitations observed at higher CRL-AMP loadings. Reusability tests showed that CRL-AMP retained 61.7% of its initial activity after seven cycles, demonstrating satisfactory operational stability. The loss of almost 40% of the enzyme activity occurred due to water accumulation and enzyme desorption from the support. The integration of immobilization and response surface methodology enabled the development of an efficient and reusable biocatalytic system. These findings support the application of CRL-AMP in the sustainable synthesis of long-chain esters for industrial purposes.

The concern for water quality is a critical issue in many countries around the world. The monitoring of water resources should be implemented to ensure water management, especially when dealing with already impacted systems. Urbanization is an impactful type of activity that contributes to the release of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) into the ecosystems. The identification of plant species with the ability to tolerate high levels of contaminants could be an alternative to remove contaminants from these environments and to evaluate the plants as bioindicators. The objective of this study was to assess the surface water and sediment quality of the Verruga River and test the aquatic macrophytes’ potential as biomonitors of some PTEs: Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn. Ten sampling points were included in the study, ranging from the source to the mouth of the river. Samples of surface water, sediments, and macrophytes were collected. In situ and laboratory analyses were performed. Direct readings of PTEs in surface water, extracts from plants and sediments were performed using ICP-OES. Quality reference guides were used. The mobility of the elements can be better visualized by the correlations between the parameters of the sediments than of the water. Concentration of Cd, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb and Zn in surface water, sediments and aquatic plants reached different levels and some parameters exceeded guidelines on environmental quality. The species Heteranthera reniformis and Eichhornia crassipes are promising macrophytes for studies on biomonitoring of PTEs in the aquatic environment of the Verruga River. Graphic Abstract

This study performs the first ex-ante environmental and economic assessment of CTS, evaluating two pathways for these applications, with the aim of guiding the selection of one of these pathways for future investments in pilot plants or their redesign. Methods Two pathways for extracting 1 kg/year of CTS were modeled at a pilot scale using laboratory data in SuperPro Designer: acid-soluble (ASC) and pepsin-soluble (PSC). Total costs and the Product Environmental Footprint were combined in contribution and scenario analyses, considering the mass and economic allocation in tilapia production and filleting. The contributions of unit processes to the impacts and costs of CTS were shown in a proportionality graph with a threshold line of relevance; only the critical points above it were prioritized to identify alternatives to reduce environmental and/or economic impacts. An optimal pathway was selected, considering uncertainty. The impacts of CTS (optimal pathway) were then compared to those of cellulose, starch, and polyacrylamide, used in films and hydrogels. The minimum selling price (MSP), calculated as annual costs per production, was also compared to surrogate market prices. These comparisons included sensitivity and uncertainty analyses. Results and discussion The CTS performance study shows that collagen has greater environmental and price impacts than cornstarch, cellulose, and polyacrylamide, even with 90% less CTS, in both allocation criteria and in most impact categories. The comparison between ASC and PSC after improvements reveals that ASC outperforms PSC, leading to its selection. In both pathways and criteria, the main critical points above the relevance threshold and close to the proportionality line are sodium chloride, ultrapure water, acetic acid, and ethanol. For these points, the most effective alternatives are replacing dialysis with diafiltration and adjusting the acetic acid concentration, along with reducing reaction time, temperature, and yield. Conclusions Recommendations were provided for redesigning the CTS production process and its targeted application, highlighting potential improvements such as the use of electrodialysis in the purification stage, the removal of the lipid extraction step or the replacement of ethanol with butyl alcohol, as well as the evaluation of applications in the biomedical sector. Learnings from this study allowed the proposition of a novel integrated framework for improving technological pathways and targeting product application based on techno-economic and environmental impact criteria at technology readiness level 5. This framework may be applied to assess and improve other technologies on a laboratory scale.

Urban heat as a growing hazard: a spatiotemporal analysis of land-use/land-cover changes and land surface temperature in Ha Noi city, Viet Nam - Do Thi Loan; Gong Jian; Ngo Thi Ha; Zhu Guohua; Nguyen Thi Thu Ha; Ho Nguyen (Natural Hazards, 2026)
Urban heat island (UHI) effects are increasingly recognized as a significant anthropogenic and climate‑related urban heat hazard in rapidly growing tropical cities, with profound implications for public health, energy demand, and urban ecosystems. This study examines the spatiotemporal relationship between land-use/land-cover (LULC) changes and land surface temperature (LST) in Ha Noi, Viet Nam, over a 24-year period (1998–2022), using Landsat remote sensing imagery, biophysical indices (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Normalized Difference Built‑up Index (NDBI), Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI), and Bare Soil Index (BI)), the Contribution Index (CI), and GIS-based spatial analysis. Additionally, the study evaluates UHI intensity and applies the Urban Thermal Field Variance Index (UTFVI) to assess ecological thermal stress. The results show that built-up areas increased by 174.3% while vegetation cover declined by 29.5%, contributing to an increase in mean LST from 24.13 to 25.28 °C. Maximum LST values surpassed 38 °C in central districts. UHI intensity peaked at 6.06 °C in 2022, indicating severe thermal exposure in highly urbanized zones. UTFVI analysis revealed a spatial expansion of areas classified under strong and strongest ecological stress, particularly in the urban core and new development zones. These findings underscore that LULC transitions, especially the proliferation of impervious surfaces, are primary drivers of urban thermal risk. Vegetated and water-covered surfaces demonstrated strong cooling effects, highlighting the need to preserve and expand green infrastructure. The study also identifies spatial hotspots of heat vulnerability, supporting targeted risk mitigation efforts. By integrating thermal indices and LULC dynamics, this research contributes to the growing body of literature linking urban development and climate-induced hazards. It provides a scientific foundation for climate-resilient planning, UHI risk monitoring, and disaster risk reduction in tropical megacities undergoing rapid transformation.

Human-machine Interface using functional electrostimulation and inertial sensors for lower limb rehabilitation in spinal cord injury individuals: a proof of concept - Luiz Henrique Bertucci Borges; Cristian Felipe Blanco-Díaz; Bruno Henrique e Silva Bezerra; Caroline Cunha do Espírito Santo; Teodiano Bastos-Filho; Denis Delisle-Rodriguez; André Felipe Oliveira de Azevedo Dantas (Medical & Biological Engineering & Computing, 2026)
A spinal cord injury (SCI) is a neurological disorder that impairs motor and physiological functions and leads to a reduced quality of life and autonomy for the person affected. In this scenario, human-machine interfaces (HMIs) have emerged as an effective tool to leverage residual motor capabilities and benefit injured persons. This work aims to develop a closed-loop HMI system for lower-limb rehabilitation composed of an in-house multi-channel Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES), which is activated by considering gait and pedaling cycles measured by an Inertial Measurement Unit. Two experiments were conducted with individuals suffering partial SCI who performed cycling and walking activities by using our proposed HMI, while inertial and electroencephalography signals were collected for further analysis and validation. Relative power changes were observed in mu (8–13 Hz) and high beta (20–30 Hz) bands over the foot area (Cz location), comparing both FES and non-FES conditions during gait and pedaling. This comparison also showed that the volunteers performed physical activities with greater speed and cadence by using the proposed HMI system, which correctly identified the movement phases. Graphical abstract A spinal cord injury (SCI) is a neurological disorder that impairs motor and physiological functions, leading to reduced quality of life and autonomy for affected individuals.

New species of Planchonella (Sapotaceae): one from Borneo and three from New Guinea - Ulf Swenson; Jennifer Kearey; Kent Do; Timothy M. A. Utteridge (Kew Bulletin, 2026)
Summary Planchonella is the largest genus in subfamily Chrysophylloideae (Sapotaceae) and includes 97 described species distributed from the Seychelles to Hawaii with the greatest species diversity in Australia, New Caledonia and New Guinea. There are approximately an additional ten taxa that do not easily conform with known species limits, and/or have been identified by molecular methods as new to science. We describe here four new species, P. cerebrifructa Swenson from Borneo and P. hispida Swenson, P. surculiflora Swenson and P. takeuchii Swenson from New Guinea, all with distinctive autapomorphic characters. Planchonella cerebrifructa is readily distinguished by its velvety, wrinkled young fruit, very similar to the complex, folded appearance of a brain’s surface. Planchonella hispida has hispid indumentum of long, Y-shaped trichomes, in decreasing density along the midrib and on the secondary, tertiary and quaternary venation. Planchonella surculiflora sets inflorescences on lateral shoots, often with one or two leaves borne between the villose flowers. Finally, Planchonella takeuchii , although the flowers are unknown, can be recognised by its characteristic glabrous foliage of broadly elliptic leaves with a tapering apex, short petioles (± 5 mm long) and tertiary leaf venation perpendicular to the primary and secondary veins. Now, with the description of these four species, the genus Planchonella includes 101 described species.

Contamination levels and sources of trace elements in river sediments of Northeast Brazil - A. F. B. de Oliveira; B. R. de S. Gomes; R. M. do Nascimento; A. S. Moraes; J. M. Santos (International Journal of Environmental Science and Technology, 2026)
The Capibaribe and Ipojuca Rivers drain vital watersheds in the state of Pernambuco, northeastern Brazil, but are influenced by intense anthropogenic activities, particularly because they flow through municipalities in the region known as the Textile Triangle. To evaluate the spatial distributions, contamination levels, and sources of trace elements, surface sediments were collected from the two rivers and the concentrations of seven trace elements (As, Cr, Cu, Co, Ni, Pb, and Zn) were determined. Contamination levels were assessed using five indices: enrichment factor (EF), geoaccumulation index (I geo ), contamination factor (CF), pollution load index (PLI), and combined pollution index (CPI). For the Capibaribe River, Pb was considered to originate from natural sources, with the remaining trace elements presenting contamination levels ranging from low to moderate, primarily due to inputs associated with textile industry effluents and agricultural activities. For the Ipojuca River, Ni was derived from natural sources, while Cr, Cu, Pb, and Zn, at levels ranging from moderate to high, were from anthropogenic origins, especially sewage discharges. Multivariate statistical analysis was employed to distinguish the primary sources of trace element contamination, which was shown to increase in urban areas. Potential sources of contamination in both rivers also included contributions from vehicle emissions and rainwater leachate. These findings provide a comprehensive understanding of substantial contamination by trace elements and the impact of human activities in these watersheds, serving as a guide for the development of preventive and remediation policies aimed at minimizing risks to living species.

Mesoporous catalyst based on niobium for oxidative desulfurization and denitrogenation of fuels: PET as a valuable feedstock - N. R. de Oliveira; P. V. Martins; F. G. de Mendonça; B. R. L. Galvão; W. D. do Pim; R. V. Mambrini (International Journal of Environmental Science and Technology, 2026)
This work reports the catalytic activity of a mesoporous material prepared from terephthalic acid obtained via alkaline hydrolysis of recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles and niobium salt. PET, commonly found in household waste, is an inexpensive source of terephthalic acid. The synthetic protocol and characterization of the material are thoroughly described. Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) confirmed the formation of a crystalline phase, with an average crystallite size of 2.57 µm. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and elemental analysis (CHN) confirmed the formation of a new compound with irregular morphology, as observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The structural and electronic properties of the proposed catalyst were further investigated using density functional theory (DFT). Nitrogen adsorption–desorption analysis revealed a type IV isotherm, typical of mesoporous materials. The catalyst was applied in oxidation reactions for the removal of model sulfur- and nitrogen-containing petroleum contaminants. The conditions were optimized, yielding removal efficiencies of 90% for dibenzothiophene and 86% for quinoline, which are suitable models for sulfur- and nitrogen-containing compounds, respectively.

Small gains, large losses: range shifts of the hoverfly Dioprosopa clavata (Fabricius, 1794) (Diptera: Syrphidae) to 2100 - Janderson Batista Rodrigues Alencar; João Paulo Nunes; Matheus Augusto do Nascimento; Alessandre Pereira-Colavite; Adeilson de Melo Silva; Clarissa Rosa (International Journal of Biometeorology, 2026)
Climate change is rapidly reshaping species distributions and threatening ecosystem services, yet continent-wide forecasts for Neotropical hoverflies are virtually absent. Here, we present the first large-scale ecological niche modeling assessment for Dioprosopa clavata (Fabricius, 1794), a key syrphid with dual ecological roles in pollination and aphid control. Using 1,214 curated occurrences and an ensemble of MaxEnt, DOMAIN, and GLM, we combined climatic and physiographic predictors (elevation, compound topographic index, profile curvature) to project suitability under SSP2–4.5 (intermediate) and SSP5–8.5 (high-end) scenarios for 2021–2040 and 2081–2100. Models showed excellent predictive performance, with climate explaining ~ 71% of model contribution and physiography ~ 29%, highlighting the buffering role of topographic heterogeneity. Near-term projections retained most of the current range (≈ 88–89% stability), but late-century forecasts revealed dramatic contractions, up to 43.5% habitat loss under SSP5–8.5, particularly in tropical lowlands of northern South America and Central America. These losses were accompanied by increased spatial fragmentation and modest poleward and upslope gains, suggesting climate-driven range shifts toward cooler, higher-elevation refugia. Our findings indicate that D. clavata habitats will decline most severely where pollination and pest control services are most needed, agricultural regions of tropical South America, potentially reducing local ecosystem service provision. By identifying priority areas for connectivity and microclimatic refugia, this study offers a mechanical aware forecast and actionable hypotheses to guide field validation, monitoring programs, and climate-smart conservation strategies for an understudied yet functionally crucial pollinator group.

Removal of Bisphenol A, Bisphenol S, and Estrogenic Activity from Real Wastewater Using a Multi-stage IFAS System - Amanda F. do Amaral; Alexandre S. A. da Silva; Deivisson L. Cunha; Priscila M. de O. M. Cunha; Rodrigo Coutinho; Marcia Marques (Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2026)
This study evaluated the removal of bisphenol A (BPA), bisphenol S (BPS), and estrogenic activity from real municipal wastewater using a pilot-scale multi-stage integrated fixed-film activated sludge (MS-IFAS) system. The configuration comprised five sequential reactors (Anaerobic, Anoxic-1, Aerobic under IFAS, Anoxic-2, and Re-aeration) providing distinct redox conditions. Influent concentrations averaged 112.6 ± 49.5 µg L −1 for BPA and 6.6 ± 3.0 µg L −1 for BPS. Overall removal efficiencies reached 99.8 ± 0.1% and 97.7 ± 1.0%, respectively, despite influent variability. The aerobic IFAS reactor was the main contributor to contaminant degradation, maintaining performance even after a > 90% biomass loss. Estrogenicity, assessed by the Yeast Estrogen Screen assay and expressed as 17β-estradiol equivalents (E2-EQ) decreased by 83.2% (0.031–0.005 ng L −1 ). Effluent E2-EQ values were below ecotoxicological thresholds, indicating negligible estrogenic risk to aquatic organisms. These highlight the strong potential of MS-IFAS for removal of xenoestrogenic contaminants in real wastewater.

Secretory Structures in Vegetative Organs of Leguminosae: A Review of Subfamilies Caesalpinioideae, Cercidoideae and Detarioideae - Brenda M. C. Salomé; Maura Da Cunha; Juliana B. do Amaral; Jacira R. Lima; Helena R. P. Lima (The Botanical Review, 2026)
Leguminosae comprises approximately 19,325 species in 727 genera, organized into six subfamilies. Its occurrence is notable in all Brazilian phytogeographic domains, which integrates the third largest angiosperm family and the second in economic importance. Species of Leguminosae present several secretory structures that are used as taxonomic markers and exudated considered important for ecological interactions. This study aimed to review the types of secretory structures, distribution, and chemical composition of the secretions of Caesalpinioideae (including the Mimosoid clade), Cercidoideae, and Detarioideae subfamilies of Brazilian genera, as well as to evaluate the circumscription of the Mimosoid clade within the subfamily Caesalpinioideae based on these structures. A review was performed by compiling information from specialized journals and repositories of articles, dissertations and theses related to different secretory structures in the three subfamilies. Secretory structures were found in 242 species — 224 from Caesalpinioideae, 7 from Cercidoideae, and 11 from Detarioideae. Extrafloral nectaries predominated in 177 species, followed by colleters in 54 species, idioblasts in 15 and secretory cavities in eight of them. Caesalpinioideae shows primary metabolites associated with secretory structures, which enhance mutualistic interactions. The mucilage present in colleters protects the shoot apex against desiccation. The terpenoid and flavonoid classes are mostly produced by these distinct secretory structures in Cercidoideae and Detarioideae. Of the secretory structures found, a predominance of extrafloral nectaries was observed in both the Mimosoid clade and among the studied Caesalpinioideae genera. This study supports the circumscription of the Mimosoid clade and offers important information for future systematic and evolutionary studies within Leguminosae.

Antimicrobial Resistance in Salmonella Across Aquaculture, Seafood and Related Aquatic Environments: A Scoping Review With Exploratory Textual Analysis - Cristiane Coimbra de Paula; Yuri Duarte Porto; Vinícius Silva Castro; Érica do Carmo Dias Matos; Adelino Cunha‐Neto; Ricardo César Tavares Carvalho; Luciana Kimie Savay‐da‐Silva; Eduardo Eustáquio de Souza Figueiredo; Tathiana Ferguson Motheo (Reviews in Aquaculture, 2026)
Salmonella spp. are major foodborne pathogens linked to high morbidity and mortality, and their increasing antimicrobial resistance represents a growing global public health threat. This scoping review followed the PRISMA protocol and included 93 original articles on the microbiological diagnosis and antimicrobial resistance profiles of Salmonella spp. isolated from aquaculture, seafood and related aquatic environments. Studies were retrieved from PubMed, Scopus, SciELO, ScienceDirect, and Web of Science, covering 2004 to 2024. Eligible studies included samples from aquaculture systems, fisheries, seafood products, or related environmental and food‐processing sources. Extracted data addressed country of origin, resistance profiles, resistance genes and phenotypes, and multidrug‐resistant (MDR) serovars. Abstracts were analyzed using classical lexical statistics, word clouds, similarity graphs, and hierarchical descending classification in R and Iramuteq. Among studies, 42.8% originated from Asia, with the highest publication count in 2021. Textual analysis showed strong associations among the terms “ Salmonella ”, “isolates”, “resistance”, and “antimicrobials”. Hierarchical classification revealed themes such as “surveillance”, “pathogens in food”, and “One Health”. Tetracycline exhibited the highest resistance rate (83.3%) across studies, and the disk diffusion method was the most frequently used (72%). Commonly reported resistance genes included qnrS (fluoroquinolones), blaTEM‐1 (β‐lactamases), sul3 (sulfonamides), and dfrA12 (trimethoprim). Virulence genes such as invA, fimA , spvC , and stn were also identified. The most frequently reported MDR serovars were S. Typhimurium and S . Newport. This review highlights the relevance of antimicrobial‐resistant Salmonella in aquaculture and reinforces the need for robust monitoring aligned with One Health strategies to ensure safe and sustainable production.

Graded inclusion levels of shrimp head meal in digestible-based diets improve nutrient utilization and physiological responses in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) fingerlings - Guilherme Melgaço Heluy; Maria Angélica da Silva; Vivian Costa Vasconcelos; Douglas Lemos de Souza; Gerlayne Maria dos Santos; José Domingos Carneiro de Arcanjo; Bruna Emanuelle Gomes do Nascimento; Marcele Trajano de Araújo; Thiago Barbosa Cahú; Bruno Oliveira de Veras; Romero Marcos Pedrosa Brandão Costa; Ronaldo Olivera Cavalli; et al. (Aquaculture International, 2026)
This study assessed the effects of dietary shrimp head meal (SHM) on growth performance, metabolism, antioxidant status, and health of Nile tilapia ( Oreochromis niloticus ) fingerlings. Five isonitrogenous and isoenergetic diets were precisely formulated on a digestible nutrient basis, containing graded SHM levels (0, 5, 10, 15, and 20%), and fed for 45 days to fish (3.24 ± 0.07 g) reared in 50 L tanks (10 fish tank −1 ; four replicates diet −1 ) within a recirculating aquaculture system. Growth performance increased significantly with SHM inclusion, and quadratic regression analyses suggested an estimated inclusion level near 16% associated with maximal weight gain and feed conversion efficiency. Improved eviscerated weight and whole-body protein, together with reduced hepatosomatic and viscerosomatic indexes and lipid content, indicated a shift toward lean growth and efficient nutrient utilization. Enhanced villus height and elevated digestive enzyme activities (amylase, proteases, and lipases) confirmed superior nutrient assimilation. Antioxidant defenses were strengthened by higher catalase and glutathione activities in liver and muscle, while feed malondialdehyde content decreased with increasing SHM levels during storage. Hematological and biochemical improvements, including higher erythrocyte, leukocyte, and platelet counts, elevated serum protein fractions, and lower glucose, cholesterol, alanine aminotransferase, and aspartate aminotransferase levels, reflected enhanced metabolic regulation, immune competence, and hepatoprotection. Collectively, these results demonstrate that SHM functions not only as a sustainable protein source but also as a functional feed ingredient that enhances physiological resilience. The valorization of shrimp-processing residues through SHM inclusion supports circular bioeconomic development and sustainable intensification in aquaculture.

A multidisciplinary perspective on advancing genomic nursing in Portugal: roles, barriers and system-level solutions - Maria João Silva; Catarina Costa; Lídia Guimarães; Marcia Van Riper; Maria do Céu Barbieri Figueiredo; Milena Paneque (Journal of Community Genetics, 2026)
The rapid expansion of genomic science has reshaped healthcare delivery, creating new demands for interdisciplinary collaboration and highlighting the need to integrate genomics into nursing practice and education. This qualitative study explored how multidisciplinary genomic specialists, including medical geneticists, genetic counsellors and nurses, conceptualize nurses’ roles in genomic healthcare and the conditions required for effective integration in Portugal. Two online focus groups ( n = 10) were conducted and the data were analyzed using Reflexive Thematic Analysis, following Braun and Clarke’s framework. Through an iterative and interpretive process, three themes capturing patterns of shared meaning were developed: the role of nurses in genomic teams, barriers to integrating genomics in nursing education and practice, and systemic and organizational solutions for genomic integration. Participants viewed nurses as pivotal to ensuring continuity, coordination and person- and family-centered care within genomic pathways. However, integration remains constrained by limited genomic literacy, fragmented educational provision, lack of regulatory recognition and insufficient institutional support. Participants highlighted the need for structured and longitudinal genomic education across undergraduate, postgraduate and continuing professional development levels, supported by clear role delineation, clinical supervision and professional recognition. They also emphasized advocacy and policy alignment as essential to building the infrastructure required for sustainable genomic nursing practice. Advancing nursing genomics in Portugal will require coordinated educational, organizational and regulatory reform, with nurses positioned as key contributors to equitable and person-centered genomic care.

Evaluation of the effects of hybrids of metronidazole and eugenol analogues as inhibitors of the Staphylococcus aureus NorA efflux pump: an in vitro and in silico analysis - Lucas dos Santos Sa; João Arthur de Oliveira Borges; Francisco Ruan Moreira da Silva Santos; Cicera Laura Roque Paulo; Daniel Sampaio Alves; Ewerton Yago de Sousa Rodrigues; Ray Silva de Almeida; Sheila Alves Gonçalves; Cícera Datiane de Morais Oliveira Tintino; Lucas Lopardi Franco; Ana Laura Marques Trinca; Douglas Henriques Novais; et al. (Folia Microbiologica, 2026)
Staphylococcus aureus is a Gram-positive coccus-type bacterium responsible for colonizing various sites of the host’s body, thus generating several pathologies such as pneumonia, osteomyelitis, endocarditis, and even cases of sepsis. Eugenol, dihydroeugenol, guaiacol, and phenol are phenolic compounds with antimicrobial activities, as is the drug metronidazole; therefore, eight substances were synthesized by coupling metronidazole with the molecules mentioned above, thus originating the compounds AD1–AD8. The present study aimed to evaluate the antibacterial activity and the capacity of the compounds AD1–AD8 to amplify the action of norfloxacin and ethidium bromide against the S . aureus 1199B strain through the inhibition of the NorA efflux pump. Broth microdilution assays were performed to determine the MIC and to analyze the association of the compounds AD1–AD8 with norfloxacin and ethidium bromide, along with the membrane permeability test and molecular docking. The compounds AD1–AD8 obtained positive results as they exhibited a potentiating effect by reducing the MIC of norfloxacin and ethidium bromide against 1199B, thus evidencing interference with the functioning of the NorA efflux pump, which had already been predicted by the data obtained from the molecular docking assay, in addition to having demonstrated significant effects by acting on the S. aureus membrane. The information obtained from this research is in line with what is reported in the literature regarding the effects observed with eugenol, dihydroeugenol, and guaiacol and their derivatives when combined with other antibiotics against S. aureus strains that possess efflux pumps, with competitive inhibition being observed, as well as the possibility that the reduction in MIC may have occurred due to a reduction in gene expression levels. Further assays are needed to evaluate these possibilities. Based on the presented data, it was found that the compounds AD1–AD8 exhibit promising aspects to act as antibiotic adjuvants.

Evaluating economic contribution of seafood industries in Busan using hypothetical extraction method - Woo-Hee Cho; Chang K. Seung; Ji-Hoon Choi; Do-Hoon Kim (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2026)
Seafood industries of Busan in South Korea have currently suffered a notable decline in both regional output and value-added unlike the production growth in the past. In this situation, this study tries to evaluate the economic contribution of Busan’s seafood industries using the hypothetical extraction method (HEM), a well-established technique that has rarely been applied in fisheries contexts. Also, this study is a rare attempt to utilize the theoretically rigorous HEM to quantify the economic contribution of seafood industries within the SAM framework, addressing the limitation of IO models that do not consider distributional effects. The results showed, among others, that Wholesale Trade and Transportation Services are key industries for fishery managers and policymakers to recognize, as the economic contribution of the seafood industries to these sectors account for a large share of the regional economy due to their strong direct and total linkages. Interestingly, this study also discovered that the seafood industries make substantial contributions to several unexpected industries compared to their direct contributions, such as Real Estate & Leasing and Health & Social Services, due to accounting for the distributional effects captured in the SAM model.

Invasion dynamics of the mealy fennel aphid Dysaphis foeniculus in South Korea: evidence for a novel host association with Heracleum moellendorffii - Minho Lee; Mariusz Kanturski; Andrey V. Stekolshchikov; Youn Gi Moon; Do-Hee Kwon; Seunghwan Lee (Biological Invasions, 2026)
The mealy fennel aphid Dysaphis ( Dysaphis ) foeniculus (Theobald, 1923) is a globally distributed aphid associated with economically and ecologically important Apiaceae and is increasingly recognized as an invasive pest. Here, we document its occurrence in South Korea and provide evidence for a previously unrecognized host association with Heracleum moellendorffii Hance (Apiaceae), a widely used edible and medicinal plant in East Asia. Species identity was validated using an integrative taxonomic framework combining detailed morphological assessment of apterous viviparae with COI-based DNA barcoding and haplotype analysis. Morphological features were consistent with the diagnosis of D. foeniculus and neighbor-joining analysis recovered the Korean specimens within a strongly supported clade (Clade A; BS = 99%). Among 28 COI sequences analysed, 12 haplotypes were identified, which included one outgroup species, 11 Dysaphys spp., of which three were D . foeniculus . The most prevalent haplotype (Hap_1) was shared among populations in Australia, Egypt, Italy, Pakistan, South Korea, and the USA. Although the haplotype network represents an exploratory analysis due to limited sample size, it supports the phylogenetic evidence for cryptic dispersal pattern. Overall, these findings emphasize the importance of combining morphological and molecular diagnostics to detect early-stage aphid invasions, uncover novel host associations, and enhance biosecurity surveillance strategies.

Tropical zones currently produce the majority of the world’s agricultural food; however, their thermal environment poses a challenge to animals. In this context, silvopastoral systems (SPS) have been proposed to provide animals with milder microclimates owing to their shaded areas. To evaluate the impact of the silvopastoral system on the behavior, gonadosomatic development, and endocrine profile of young beef bulls, as well as to relate these characteristics to thermal comfort conditions across different seasons. Conducted over 13 months in a high-altitude tropical area in Brazil, the study involved 40 beef bulls (10.5±1.9 months; 222.5±34.5 kg BW), divided into full sun (FS; n=20) and SPS (n=20). Weather stations measured bioclimatic variables, and electronic collars permanently monitored animal behavior. Monthly measurements included hormonal profiles, live weight, and scrotal circumference. Statistical analyses used a mixed linear model (α=5%).SPS provided a milder microclimate, enhancing thermal comfort ( P P P P

Management Strategies and Agricultural Calendars for Forage Production in Semi‐Arid Brazil Using AquaCrop - Antonio Gebson Pinheiro; Cleber Pereira Alves; Carlos André Alves de Souza; George do Nascimento Araújo Júnior; Alexandre Maniçoba da Rosa Ferraz Jardim; Regina Crisóstomo Grangeiro Pereira; José Edson Florentino de Morais; Luciana Sandra Bastos de Souza; Daniela de Carvalho Lopes; Antonio José Steidle Neto; Adriano Nascimento Simões; Fleming Sena Campos; et al. (Irrigation and Drainage, 2026)
Forage production in semi‐arid regions of Brazil is limited by water deficit. This study aimed to identify the most adapted and efficient production systems and define their agricultural calendars for the semi‐arid region of Brazil. Twenty‐nine production arrangements that included different cropping conditions, plant density, plant cycles, water replenishment, use of soil cover and production arrangements based on the main crop (forage cactus) were simulated for 14 locations. On the basis of the agricultural calendar, planning from the beginning of December to January is ideal for rainfed systems. Compared with their monoculture systems, the intercropping system of forage cactus and irrigated sorghum increased the forage supply by 44% and 89%, respectively. The use of irrigation increased the forage cactus biomass by 150%, with an emphasis on the clone Orelha de Elefante Mexicana, which presented an average water productivity of 39 g m −2 . The increase in the planting density of the forage cactus increased productivity by up to 140% under the control. The use of irrigated forage cactus and sorghum intercropping should be recommended, in addition to practices such as higher planting densities and the use of mulch to optimise yield.

In response to the International Maritime Organization’s strengthened regulations on carbon emissions, the introduction of novel eco-friendly technologies for ship operators has become necessary. In this context, various energy saving devices such as wind-assisted propulsion systems (e.g., wing/rotor sails), propeller-rudder efficiency enhancers (e.g., pre-swirl stators or ducted propellers), and the gate rudder system have been proposed. Among various energy-saving technologies, the air lubrication system has been widely investigated as an effective means of reducing hull frictional resistance through air injection beneath the hull. The performance of air lubrication systems can be evaluated through experimental testing or computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. However, accurately simulating air lubrication systems in CFD remains challenging. Therefore, this study aims to quantitatively evaluate the influence of numerical parameters on the CFD implementation of air lubrication systems. To evaluate these influences, CFD simulations employing the unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (URANS) method were conducted to investigate air layer formation and sweep angle on a flat plate. The numerical predictions were systematically compared with experimental results by varying key numerical parameters. These quantitative estimations of the effects of numerical variables are expected to serve as a useful benchmark for CFD simulations of air lubrication systems.

Analysis of Incorporating Market Prices into Stock Assessments for the Japanese Flying Squid (Todarodes pacificus) - Dong-Jin Kwak; Ji-Hoon Choi; Do-Hoon Kim (Fishes, 2026)
This study aimed to evaluate the stock status of the Japanese flying squid (Todarodes pacificus), a critical fishery resource in the waters of Korea, China, and Japan. To achieve this objective, we employed the Bio-Economic Stock Assessment (BESA) model, which integrates catch and market price data to estimate the biological and economic parameters of Japanese flying squid biomass. The assessment results indicated that the current biomass level of Japanese flying squid is below the biomass at Maximum Sustainable Yield (BMSY), suggesting that the stock is overfished. Moreover, the findings from the BESA model were consistent with results obtained from the Monte Carlo Method (CMSY) and Bayesian State-Space (BSS) models, both of which also indicated a collapsed status. Unlike the CMSY and BSS models, which rely on catch and catch per unit effort (CPUE) data, the BESA model utilizes market price data from National Statistics and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), thereby eliminating the need for CPUE standardization. Consequently, the BESA model presents an alternative framework that complements existing assessment methods and enhances the reliability of fishery stock evaluations through its integrated approach, suggesting its potential applicability to the stock assessment of Japanese flying squid in Korea.
