Reliable three-dimensional (3D) building surface reconstruction depends on accurate and comprehensive spatial data; however, acquiring such data remains challenging, particularly for point clouds. Data collected using terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-based LiDAR provide detailed geometric information but are often affected by occlusions, limited viewpoints, and sensor constraints, resulting in...

Cortinarius squamibrunneus sp. nov. was collected from Swat District, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. The species is distinguished from its closely related species, C . epipurrus , by its pale orangish‐brown to brown, fibrillose–squamulose pileus with a darker central disc and a rimose to radially cracked margin, smaller basidiospores (5.5–7.4 × 3.6–5 μm) with finely ornamented warts and variably shaped sterile cells. Comparativ...

Fungal pathogens pose a serious threat to the cultivation of morels ( Morchella spp.), impacting both yield and quality and, consequently, the economic viability of morel farming. This review explores the diverse range of fungal pathogens affecting morels, including Albomorchellophila morchellae , Cladobotryum protrusum , Clonostachys aureofulvella , Clonostachys rosea , Cylindrodendrum alicantinum , Diploöspora longispora , F...

Simplicillium and Leptobacillium are entomopathogenic fungal genera frequently associated with arthropods in tropical ecosystems and considered promising candidates for biological pest control. However, the diversity of these genera in tropical regions, particularly in Malaysia, has not been systematically investigated in the context of their taxonomy and phylogenetic relationships. This study aimed to investigate the taxonomi...

Anthropogenic climate change is driving a convergence of rapid soil aridification and secondary salinization that threatens to degrade over half of the world's arable land. As conventional glycophytic crops reach their physiological limits, global food security depends on decoding the evolutionary adaptations of extremophytes. This review synthesizes the functional traits and ecosystem‐level impacts of extremophytes, the nativ...

Laccase has been widely reported for the detoxification of industrial effluents, yet large‐scale applications require cost‐effective production. This study utilised an innovative approach by employing biomass from the halophyte Desmostachya bipinnata, which has not been previously reported for microbial enzyme production. A newly discovered bacterial species, Anoxybacteroides rupiense, was used for laccase production. Initiall...

Marine bivalves play pivotal ecological and economic roles but are increasingly challenged by multiple environmental stressors. Although there is extensive research on the effects of individual stressors, a comprehensive review is needed to synthesize current evidence and clarify how multiple interacting stressors collectively affect the physiology and resilience of marine bivalves. This review integrates evidence from 2010 to...
