Cyanobacterial blooms represent a significant environmental issue posing widespread threats to global aquatic ecological health. Climate and nutrient enrichment were the most studied factors modulating cyanobacterial blooms in eutrophic lakes. However, in many floodplain lakes, the importance of hydrological variation in driving and predicting cyanobacterial blooms is often overlooked and largely underestimated, which has hampered the effectiveness of lake management.

Ecosystems in cold and arid regions, such as Dai Lake - a typical inland, salinized lake in the semi-arid region of northern China - face severe environmental challenges, including salinization and biodiversity loss. This study investigates the chemical composition of dissolved organic matter (DOM) and the structure of microbial communities in lake water and sediments, offering novel insights into the ecosystem's dynamics. In winter, DOM in the lake water is primarily derived from decaying plant and animal matter, while sediment DOM is predominantly associated with microbial activity.

Background: Bunge (CM) shows promising potential for managing rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and digestive disorders, attributed to its rich content of bioactive compounds such as polyphenols and flavonoids. Despite its common use in herbal tea, the specific mechanisms underlying CM's anti-inflammatory and joint-protective effects remain unclear, limiting its development as a functional food. This study investigated the effects of aqueous CM extract on RA in collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) rats and explored the underlying mechanisms.

The Solanaceae family, which includes vital crops such as tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, and potatoes, is increasingly impacted by drought due to climate change. Recent research has concentrated on unraveling the molecular mechanisms behind drought resistance in these crops, with a focus on abscisic acid (ABA) signaling pathways, transcription factors (TFs) like MYB (Myeloblastosis), WRKY (WRKY DNA-binding protein), and NAC (NAM, ATAF1/2, and CUC2- NAM: No Apical Meristem, ATAF1/2, and CUC2: Cup-shaped Cotyledon), and the omics approaches. Moreover, transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) has been instrumental in identifying differentially expressed genes (DEGs) crucial for drought adaptation.

Plant roots perceive heat stress (HS) and adapt their architecture accordingly, which in turn influence the yield in crops. Investigating their heterogeneity and cell type-specific response to HS is essential for improving crop resilience. Here, we generate single-cell transcriptional landscape of maize (Zea mays) roots in response to HS.
