Bacterial extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanosized vesicles released by both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, playing critical roles in microbial communication, host-pathogen interactions, and immune modulation. Despite their significance in research and clinical applications, conventional isolation methods, such as ultracentrifugation (UC), are often slow, labor-intensive, and susceptible to contamination. In this...

Understanding genetic responses to forest dynamics is essential for predicting the long‐term viability of understory plant populations and for developing effective conservation strategies. We investigated genetic extinction debt and colonization credit in broad‐leaved enchanter's nightshade ( Circaea lutetiana ), a clonal forest understory species, across its European range. Using pooled genotype‐by‐sequencing data from 40 for...

Purpose Previous culture-based studies suggest three significant pathogens in acute tonsillitis (AT): Streptococcus pyogenes , Fusobacterium necrophorum , and Streptococcus dysgalactiae . Next-generation sequencing (NGS) provides further insights into the human microbiome and may pinpoint additional pathogens in bacterial infections. We aimed to investigate the tonsillar microbiome and identify pathogens associated with AT by...

Aim To quantify the intra‐community variability of leaf‐out (ICVLo) among dominant trees in temperate deciduous forests, assess its links with specific and phylogenetic diversity, identify its environmental drivers and deduce its ecological consequences with regard to radiation received and exposure to late frost. Location Eastern North America (ENA) and Europe (EUR). Time Period 2009–2022. Major Taxa Studied Temperate deciduo...

Assessing the degree to which climate explains the spatial distributions of different taxonomic and functional groups is essential for anticipating the effects of climate change on ecosystems. Most effort so far has focused on above‐ground organisms, which offer only a partial view on the response of biodiversity to environmental gradients. Here including both above‐ and below‐ground organisms, we quantified the degree of topo...
