Relating ecological diversity to genetic discontinuity across bacterial species by Hemanoel Passarelli-Araujo, Thiago M. Venancio, William P. Hanage

“…Results We harness a dataset comprising 210,129 genomes to systematically explore genetic discontinuity patterns across several distantly related species, finding clear breakpoints which vary depending on the taxa in question. By delving into pangenome characteristics, we uncover a significant association between pangenome saturation and genetic discontinuity. …”

From Scientific Research to Geoconservation and Geopark by Dan Grigorescu

“…The Haţeg region of Transylvania-Romania, known as the “Haţeg Country”, due to its specific character as a region wholly encircled by mountains, has been renowned for over a century for its palaeontological geosites from which dinosaur bones of several species, dinosaur eggs and hatchlings, were unearthed along with numerous other taxa representative of all the major vertebrate groups: fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals. …”

Deep terrestrial indigenous microbial community dominated by Candidatus Frackibacter by Sian E. Ford, Greg F. Slater, Katja Engel, Oliver Warr, Garnet S. Lollar, Allyson Brady, Josh D. Neufeld, Barbara Sherwood Lollar

“…Contrastingly, biosamplers and biofilms exposed to the mine environment contained aerobic Sphingomonas taxa. δ13C values of phospholipid fatty acids and putative functional predictions derived from 16S rRNA gene profiles, imply Candidatus Frackibacter may use carbon derived from ancient carbon-rich layers common in these systems. …”

Molecular phylogeny and comparative chloroplast genome analysis of the type species Crucigenia quadrata by Ting Wang, Huan Feng, Huan Zhu, Bojian Zhong

“…Conclusions The determination of the phylogenetic status and the comparative chloroplast genomic analyses of C. quadrata will not only be useful in enhancing our understanding of the intricacy of Crucigenia taxonomy but also provide the important basis for studying the evolution of the incertae sedis taxa within Trebouxiophyceae.…”

Holocene Bythocytheridae (Ostracoda: Podocopida) from Southwestern Atlantic deep-sea sediments off Brazil. Part 1: tribes Bythocytherini Sars, 1926 and Jonesini Schornikov, 1981 by Cristianini Trescastro Bergue, Marie-Béatrice Forel, Geise de Santana dos Anjos-Zerfass, Simone Nunes Brandão

“…During the Cenozoic this family became one of the main constituents of the deep-sea ostracod faunas, with some taxa reaching wide geographic distribution. Bythocytherids are, therefore, important for the understanding of evolution and paleobiogeography in marine Ostracoda. …”

Effects of Grazing Intensity on Microbial Diversity at Different Soil Depths in Desert Steppe Soils by Yuxin Wang, Xin Ju, Qian Wu, Guodong Han

“…CK and LG treatments supported higher microbial diversity, especially in surface layers, while heavy grazing was associated with a shift in community composition toward stress-tolerant taxa like Acidobacteriota and Blastocatella. Non-metric multidimensional scaling analysis revealed differences in microbial community structure between soil depths, with the effects of grazing diminishing with depth. …”

Role of Chromosome Changes in Evolution and Diversity by Kornsorn Srikulnath, Watcharaporn Thapana, Narongrit Muangmai

“…The chromosome numbers of Alligator, Caiman, Melanosuchus, Paleosuchus, Gavialis, Tomistoma, Mecistops, and Osteolaemus were stable within each genus, whereas those of Crocodylus (crocodylians) varied within the taxa. This agreed with molecular phylogeny that suggested a highly recent radiation of Crocodylus species. …”

Dynamic land-plant carbon sources in marine sediments inferred from ancient DNA by Ulrike Herzschuh, Josefine Friederike Weiß, Kathleen R. Stoof-Leichsenring, Lars Harms, Dirk Nürnberg, Juliane Müller

“…Abstract Terrigenous organic matter in marine sediments is considered a significant long-term carbon sink, yet our knowledge regarding its source taxa is severely limited. Here, we leverage land-plant ancient DNA from six globally distributed marine sediment cores covering the Last Glacial–Holocene transition as a proxy for the share, burial rate, preservation, and composition of terrigenous organic matter. …”

WILD SOUR CHERRY SPECIES OF THE CAUCASUS, CENTRAL ASIA AND THE FAR EAST AND THEIR USE IN BREEDING by A. A. Yushev, Yu. S. Orlova

“…In general, this work contributed to the revision of the genus Cerasus Mill. by reducing the number of species in it, eliminating the extensive synonymy and the misidentified taxa. The breeding work aimed at creating new varieties and rootstocks for stone fruit crops is carried out in Russia at 4–5 institutions and employs wild species with important traits as source material. …”
