Microbial inoculums (MIs) were the widely used biofortification strategy in composting. However, lack of efficient MIs and unclear strengthening mechanisms might impaired the efficiency of MIs. Here, three experimental group (precise strains, commercial MI, Inoculum HJ) and one control group (untreated) were investigated to close these gaps. Adding MIs could significantly prolong the duration of thermophilic period (1.5-2.8 times), but the difference in GI, pH value, EC value and moisture content were marginal. Furthermore, it could be observed that adding Inoculum HJ could improve the degradation rate of lignocellulose and organic matters for 1.22-1.25 times. The high-throughput sequencing results showed that adding Inoculum HJ made additional genus dominant, with their relative abundance raised from 2.58 to 3.39 times. Results of network analysis showed that microbial interaction could be strengthened by adding MIs, and significantly improved composting quality. The most intensive interaction was observed in the pile with Inoculum HJ, which was 1.20 times higher than other piles. To explore how Inoculum HJ strengthened microbial interaction, module based connectivity analysis was used to distinguish key hubs. Results showed that twelve hkey OTUs in the thermophilic period were similar to additional strains' full-length 16S rRNA gene. These results showed that additional strains behaved like the key hubs to strengthen microbial interaction in the thermophilic period. This research indicated that additional strains from the most efficient inoculum could behave as key hubs to increase the network complexity and had the potential to strengthen microbial interaction.

Purpose Of Review: This narrative review discusses the mechanisms connecting gut dysbiosis to adverse clinical outcomes in critically ill patients and explores potential therapeutic strategies.
Recent Findings: In recent years, the study of microbiota in ICUs has gained attention because of its potential effects on patient outcomes. Critically ill patients often face severe conditions, which can compromise their immune systems and lead to opportunistic infections from bacteria typically harmless to healthy individuals.

In order to identify the pathogen responsible for Hedera nepalensis leaf blight and investigate effective biocontrol strategies, samples were collected from 10 significantly infected areas at Southwest Forestry University; four to six infected leaves were gathered from each area, followed by the isolation and purification of strains from the infected plant leaves using tissue isolation and hyphae-purification techniques. We conducted an examination of the biological characteristics and compared the inhibitory effects of different concentrations of Phomopsis sp. (50%, 25%, 16.

Most cold-season grasses can be colonized by belowground arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi and foliar grass endophytes (Epichloë) simultaneously while also be attacked by insect herbivores. The colonization of AM fungi or the presence of grass endophytes is associated with increased resistance by the host plant. However, studies on how these two symbionts affect host plants and mitigate insect pest attack are currently lacking.

Iron plays a prominent role in various biological processes and is an essential element in almost all organisms, including plant-pathogenic fungi. As a transition element, iron occurs in two redox states, Fe and Fe, the transition between which generates distinct reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as HO, OH anions, and toxic OH· radicals. Thus, the redox status of Fe determines ROS formation in pathogen attack and plant defense and governs the outcome of pathogenic interactions.

The dense passive film on 316L stainless steel is the key in its corrosion resistance. Its interactions with an electroactive biofilm are critical in deciphering microbial corrosion. Herein, an in-depth investigation using genetic manipulations and addition of an exogenous electron mediator found that extracellular electron transfer (EET) mediated by the electroactive S.
