Soil carbon sequestration (SC seq ) is fundamental to global climate mitigation initiatives; however, growing evidence indicates an expanding disparity between carbon (C) accumulation and its long‐term persistence. This article aims to integrate recent advances in microbial ecology, mineral biogeochemistry, and nutrient stoichiometry to examine why increases in soil C (SC) stocks do not necessarily translate into long‐term per...

The rapid evolution of pesticide resistance in Plutella xylostella has reduced the effectiveness of conventional pest control methods in cruciferous crops. This study investigated the virulence of Serratia marcescens PXG6 against P. xylostella and identified two putative virulence factors, ser (serralysin) and shlB (hemolysin transporter). Whole‐genome sequencing revealed a GC content of 59.65%, 4650 predicted genes, multiple...

The Early Jurassic was punctuated by repeated intervals of enhanced organic matter preservation. Subsequent methane release from organic-rich strata via methanogenesis is locally recorded by seep structures. The geochemical characteristics of these seep structures remain poorly constrained. This study presents a comprehensive inorganic geochemical analysis of carbonate-cemented seep mounds from Sinemurian and Toarcian cold see...
