A gut-derived Streptococcus salivarius produces the novel nisin variant designated nisin G and inhibits Fusobacterium nucleatum in a model of the human distal colon microbiome by Garreth W. Lawrence, Enriqueta Garcia-Gutierrez, A. Kate O’Mahony, Calum J. Walsh, Paula M. O'Connor, Máire Begley, Caitriona M. Guinane, Paul D. Cotter

“…The production of this bacteriocin by a gut-derived S. salivarius, its narrow-spectrum activity, and its anti-F. nucleatum activity in a model colonic environment indicates that this strain merits further attention with a view to harnessing its probiotic potential.IMPORTANCEFusobacterium nucleatum is a human pathogen associated with intestinal conditions, including colorectal cancer, making it a potentially important therapeutic target. Bacteriocin-producing probiotic bacteria demonstrate the potential to target disease-associated taxa in situ in the gut. …”

Comparative and synergistic impacts of lime and biochar on soil properties, nitrogen transformation, and microbial function in acidic soils under tobacco cropping by Bianhong Zhang, Lina Tang, Zhicheng Chen, Xiaoyan Chen, Lindong You, Ruixin Pan, Ting Chen, Yifei Liu, Wenxiong Lin, Wenxiong Lin, Jinwen Huang

“…Correlation analysis revealed that increases in soil pH and exchangeable base cations facilitated nitrogen transformation, thereby enhancing NUE. Lime treatments (L, L+B) promoted nitrification potential in rhizosphere soil, whereas biochar application (B, L+B) resulted in elevated nitrate nitrogen content. …”
