However, these ecosystems are highly vulnerable to environmental disturbances, such as fire and mining. Despite the key ecological roles of soil microbes, descriptions of microbial assemblages in many peatland systems, and how they may shift under the dual disturbances of fire and mining, remain poorly addressed. Here, we assessed the composition and diversity of soil microbial communities in three mined and three unmined swamps in southeastern Australia, all affected by the unprecedented summer bushfires during 2019–2020. Bacterial and eukaryotic communities were analysed alongside soil chemical properties across a moisture gradient within each swamp. Our results revealed significant differences in communities due to mining activities, with the most pronounced differences observed within swamp communities rather than other sites along the moisture gradient. The eukaryotic community was significantly influenced by the combined effects of mining activity and fire history. The bacterial community was significantly correlated with pH. Our findings suggest that mining was associated with changes in eukaryotic diversity and bacterial community structure and functionality, with fire history potentially contributing to the observed patterns. This study underscores the critical, detrimental impacts that mining can have on peatland microbial composition.","PeriodicalId":163,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Microbiology Reports","volume":"18 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2026-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1758-2229.70397","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149134175","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moreover, maximum growth in population under stirring and static conditions was 3.7 × 108 CFU mL-1 and 1.5 × 109 CFU mL-1, respectively. Besides, bacterial treatment (both agitation and static), reduced phytotoxicity of the residues, as observed in both lettuce seedlings and onion bulbs, used as biosensors of toxicity. Furthermore, we demonstrated that treated residues can be safely disposed on soil without harmful effects. This statement was observed in soil irrigated with Cytobacillus sp. OWB-43-treated residue, which supported lettuce growth, with fresh and dry weight values comparable to those grown in water-irrigated soil. While genera such as Bacillus and Pseudomonas are known for oily wastewater treatment, this study identifies Cytobacillus sp. as a promising and previously unreported bioremediation agent on olein waste treatment.","PeriodicalId":163,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Microbiology Reports","volume":"18 5","pages":"e70424"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2026-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13649369/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149134160","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For the first time in Cyprus, we investigated the effects of manure type (dairy cow vs. goat) and a drying-rainfall simulation pulse on the community composition, diversity, and functional potential during manure storage, using 16S rRNA metabarcoding and shotgun sequencing. Under dry conditions, substrate composition set the baseline, with the more structurally heterogeneous goat manure supporting significantly higher diversity than dairy cow manure. Rainfall simulation then acted as a dominant environmental filter, sharply reducing diversity and driving compositional convergence across manure types. This shift coincided with a rapid rise of fast-responding, stress-tolerant taxa, primarily Bacillota, and an increase in functions linked to sporulation and rapid growth. Ordination and dispersion analyses further showed that substrate origin modulates stability: after rainfall simulation, cow-manure communities exhibited greater compositional displacement and greater variability than those from goat manure. Overall, the efficacy and stability of manure storage systems emerge from the interplay between initial physicochemical template and dynamic moisture stress. Optimising large-scale operations will require management approaches that consider substrate characteristics, microbial community structure, and moisture dynamics.","PeriodicalId":163,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Microbiology Reports","volume":"18 5","pages":"e70429"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2026-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13641882/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149101631","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, translating their benefits into restoration practices requires scalable delivery methods. Coral tissue fusion may provide one such pathway by facilitating HE symbiont transfer to wild corals; however, its feasibility remains largely untested. As an initial test, we paired adult isografts of Galaxea fascicularis and Psammocora columna hosting HE Cladocopium proliferum (SS8) with chemically bleached, SS8-naive recipients. Fusion was first observed after 3 days in G. fascicularis and 9 days in P. columna. In both species, fusion was followed by increased pigmentation and photochemical efficiency at the recipient's fusion interface relative to distal tissue and unfused controls. After ~50 days, SS8 was detected at low levels (< 3.5%) in 15/19 fused G. fascicularis recipients, although detection was also common among unfused horizontal-transmission controls maintained in the same water column (13/18). These findings provide the first empirical evidence that conspecific coral tissue fusion is associated with rapid localised physiological recovery and can coincide with HE symbiont acquisition, but also highlight the need to distinguish tissue-mediated transfer from background horizontal transmission. Fusion may therefore represent a complementary pathway for symbiont delivery in assisted-evolution frameworks.","PeriodicalId":163,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Microbiology Reports","volume":"18 5","pages":"e70418"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2026-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13631721/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149101712","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditionally considered predominantly a human-associated microorganism transmitted via oral-faecal routes, growing evidence challenges this paradigm by demonstrating its persistence outside the human host through interactions with free-living amoebae (FLA). This review critically examines current knowledge of the biological and ecological interplay between H. pylori and FLA, focusing on amoeba-mediated internalisation, intracellular survival, morphological plasticity, and protection from environmental stressors. We highlight FLA's ability to support the persistence of spiral and viable but non-culturable (VBNC) coccoid forms of H. pylori, potentially enabling prolonged survival in aquatic and food-associated environments and raising concerns regarding potential waterborne and foodborne transmission. Given the limited direct experimental evidence, we integrate insights from amoeba-resistant bacteria to illustrate convergent intracellular persistence strategies. By considering FLA as a potential underrecognised environmental reservoir, this review expands current frameworks of H. pylori transmission and persistence, with potential relevance to settings with inadequate sanitation. We also outline key mechanistic and methodological gaps and call for standardised models to clarify the ecological significance of these interactions and inform surveillance and control strategies.","PeriodicalId":163,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Microbiology Reports","volume":"18 5","pages":"e70436"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2026-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13675607/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149206345","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study compared two neighbouring AFS in Tomé-Açu (PA, Brazil) with similar land-use, size, and productivity but contrasting management: organic inputs (AGF19) vs. chemical fertilization (AGF27), alongside a native forest reference area. Soil samples were evaluated through physicochemical properties, litter composition, and amplicon sequencing (16S rRNA and ITS) across three soil depths. Despite similar soil and litter characteristics, AGF19 showed a lower abundance of phytopathogenic fungi and associations with beneficial fungal taxa as biomarkers. In contrast, AGF27 exhibited signs of a microbiota shift towards a stress-related community. These findings could be partially associated with modest management changes like favouring organic inputs, influencing microbial diversity, functional guilds, and soil chemistry. Differences in management could be potentially linked with the identification of a phytopathogenic fungal taxon (e.g., Fusarium) as a biological marker of the community sampled in the AGF27 soil.

Using bacterial 16S and fungal ITS amplicon sequencing, we analysed microbial communities across gradients from the centre towards strip edges. We found that phyllosphere microbiomes are more affected by strip-cropping than soil microbiomes. Neighbouring crops harbour different microbial communities, but with increasing proximity, their phyllosphere microbiomes share more specific microbial taxa. Likewise, we observed gradient-specific microbial distribution, including fungal pathogen taxa. For instance, Puccinia was more abundant in the centre of the spring barley strips and gradually declined towards the edge. Correlation and co-occurrence network analyses revealed distinct microbial interaction patterns across soil and phyllosphere gradients. These networks were more resilient at the edge of the strips compared to central networks of spring barley.
