Cancer continues to be a leading cause of death globally, driving the ongoing search for novel bioactive compounds with therapeutic potential. Metagenomic sequencing has revolutionized this pursuit by enabling the direct detection and genomic assembly of previously uncultured Streptomyces species from environmental DNA, circumventing traditional cultivation limitations. This review explores recent advances in metagenomics-driv...

Understanding rainfall variability and trends across Indonesia is crucial for developing strategies to mitigate the impacts of climate change. This study examines the spatial–temporal variability and trends in rainfall across Indonesia using long‐term (1981–2023) Climate Hazards Group InfraRed Precipitation with Stations (CHIRPS) v2.0 data. Rainfall variability was quantified using monthly and daily rainfall indices, while tre...

This study examined the diurnal variation in rainfall in Kalimantan, focusing on precipitation accumulation (PA), precipitation frequency (PF), and precipitation intensity (PI), using rain gauge data from 103 stations (2016–2022) and Integrated Multi‐Satellite Retrievals for Global Precipitation Measurement Version 07 B (IMERG V07B) for an extended period (2002–2022). The results showed that PA was more closely aligned with PF...

Decapods play vital ecological and economic roles, yet their diversity and distribution in the coastal waters of Matang remain poorly understood. Increasing anthropogenic pressures have further impacted their habitats, underscoring the need for improved biodiversity assessments. Conventional monitoring methods are often limited by inconsistencies, invasiveness, low taxonomic resolution, and inefficiency in complex habitats. Th...

Meteorological droughts in Malaysia have significantly impacted critical sectors such as agriculture, water resources, health, the environment, tourism and various socio‐economic sectors, affecting the population's livelihood and well‐being. This study analyses drought characteristics over a 39‐year period, from 1982 to 2021, using the Standardised Precipitation Index (SPI) derived from 5‐km resolution Climate Hazards Group In...

Vibrio harveyi and Vibrio parahaemolyticus are species of the Vibrio genus that often cause disease and mass mortality in crustaceans. If not handled quickly and appropriately, these diseases can cause considerable losses to farmers. Therefore, it is necessary to find a solution with safe and environmentally friendly disease prevention technology using natural ingredients, among others from plants, namely oil palm. Some parts...
