Studies across independent cohorts have begun to reveal reproducible microbial signatures, with taxa such as Desulfovibrio spp., Akkermansia, and Bifidobacterium repeatedly enriched, whereas Prevotellaceae and Faecalibacterium are consistently reduced. Beyond these broad compositional patterns, several species and strains-including Helicobacter pylori, curli-producing Escherichia coli, and Desulfovibrio spp.-have been linked to processes such as α-synuclein aggregation, immune activation, and dopaminergic vulnerability. Microbial metabolites including short-chain fatty acids, hydrogen sulfide, lipopolysaccharides, bile acids, and iron-related compounds provide additional mechanistic connections, influencing gut barrier function, inflammatory responses, and neuronal homeostasis. In this review, we bring together findings from taxonomic, metabolic, and mechanistic studies, evaluate the therapeutic potential of microbiota-targeted interventions. Future research should pivot from descriptive microbiome profiling toward mechanistic studies that delineate causal relationships between defined microbes, their metabolites, and PD pathology.

However, such tests, conducted under highly controlled, microbiota-free conditions, neglect contaminant interactions with diverse microbial communities (billions of cells L⁻¹) prior to encountering larger marine organisms. Extrapolating results of single-species experiments and their modeling outcomes to marine ecosystems can overestimate ecological risk and can result in policies such as banning open-loop scrubbers. In fact, scrubbers may not only result in reduced SOx emissions but may also lower atmospheric Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) emissions, especially in port areas, thus contributing to improved air quality. Obviously, such trade-offs between cleaner air and cleaner seas present challenges to policymakers. Mesocosm ecotoxicity experiments show bacterioplankton, phytoplankton, and metazoan plankton communities' resilience to diluted effluent in seawater and the increase of bacterial xenobiotic biodegradation gene machinery. These experiments indicate a fast bacterial biodegradation of abundant PAHs affecting the exposure levels to the rest of marine organisms. Another key factor mitigating PAH impacts in mesocosms is diatom-dominated phytoplankton as their enlarged phycosphere is a microhabitat for PAH-degrading bacteria. Marine microbes can quickly break down pollutants and sustainable environmental risk assessment policies must weigh this natural resilience alongside the air-quality gains from scrubbers.","PeriodicalId":516860,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable microbiology","volume":"3 1","pages":"qvaf035"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13375286/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148709195","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conventional remediation technologies are often unsustainable due to their high operational costs, high energy demands, and generation of secondary pollutants. In contrast, Boron-tolerant bacteria have emerged as eco-friendly alternatives for bioremediation. Boron-tolerant bacterial strains from genera such as Bacillus, Lysinibacillus, and Microbacterium not only reduce B bioavailability but also enhance plant tolerance when applied in phyto-bioremediation systems. The integration of omics technologies and genetic engineering is accelerating the understanding and optimization of these microbial processes. This review consolidates the current understanding of B occurrence, transport, and toxicity, with a focus on bacterial tolerance mechanisms, including efflux systems, bioaccumulation, quorum sensing, and redox regulation. Molecular-level insights, such as the role of orthologous transport genes (e.g. MFS and RND families), were also evaluated. Additionally, proteomic evidence of B responsive proteins provide functional perspectives. The diversity of boron-tolerant bacteria and their bioremediation potential, particularly within integrated plant-microbe frameworks for sustainable remediation, have been critically evaluated. We also highlight current limitations, knowledge gaps, and future prospects for deploying Boron-tolerant bacteria as a sustainable solution in environmental management, aligning with global sustainability goals.","PeriodicalId":516860,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable microbiology","volume":"3 1","pages":"qvaf034"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13375343/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148709210","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Anthropogenic activities have shifted the amounts and forms of carbon and nitrogen within soils. Whilst access to carbon and nitrogen is essential for plant growth and microbial food webs, excess carbon and nitrogen can lead to pollution via leaching into groundwater and the release of greenhouse gases, notably carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide, contributing to global warming. In addition, changes in environmental conditions brought about by climate change, such as temperature increases, increased acidification of environments and shifts in soil moisture can also impact on microbial communities residing within soils leading again to shifts in biogeochemical cycling. Therefore, understanding the microbial communities associated with biogeochemical cycling is key to understanding healthy environments.

Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 16 calls for promoting inclusive societies and ensuring justice for all. Yet the SDG 16 framework largely ignores the biological and structural determinants of behavior related to justice involvement. This perspective article argues that microbial ecology plays a foundational role in cognition and behavior-factors central to justice outcomes. Advances in neuromicrobiology and omics technologies show how microbial disruptions linked to poverty and environmental factors may increase behavioral risks and reinforce inequality. We introduce the legalome concept-the systemic application of microbiome sciences and related omics technologies to forensic and legal psychology. From auto-brewery syndrome to microbial signatures tied to aggression, impulsivity, and neuropsychiatric conditions, evidence is mounting that microbiota-brain interactions have forensic relevance. Yet justice systems often remain rooted in prescientific notions of free will and blame. Carceral institutions often exacerbate dysbiosis through poor nutrition, social isolation, circadian disruptions, acoustic stress, and overall deprivation-further entrenching risk and undermining rehabilitation. We argue that SDG 16 should expand to reflect this evolving science. Integrating microbial ecology into justice reform offers a framework for prevention and healing-bridging sustainability, equity, and dignity.","PeriodicalId":516860,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable microbiology","volume":"2 4","pages":"qvaf027"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13375371/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148709262","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study examines the genomic and functional traits of two newly isolated bacterial strains-Stenotrophomonas strain 3 and Pseudomonas strain 8-from the metal-contaminated D-Area Ash Plume at the Savannah River Site (SRS). Growth assays showed strain 8 tolerated cobalt (Co) (400 ppm) and copper (Cu) (1000 ppm), while strain 3 thrived in zinc (Zn) (20 000 ppm). Both exhibited limited growth under high nickel exposure, indicating distinct metal-specific resistance profiles.

Strain 3's genome comprised 61 contigs (4.41 Mb, 66.6% GC), and strain 8's included 62 contigs (6.93 Mb, 63.48% GC). Comparative genomic analysis of strains 3 and 8 with several previously reported SRS isolates revealed that Burkholderia spp. (SRS-25, SRS-46, SRS-W-2-2016) possessed the most extensive resistance gene repertoire, followed by Stenotrophomonas and Pseudomonas.

Nitrification inhibitors such as 3,4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate (DMPP) offer a promising strategy to mitigate these emissions, though their effectiveness is highly context-dependent. We conducted a laboratory microcosm experiment using four Cypriot soils spanning acidic to near-neutral pH to compare N₂O emissions, inorganic N dynamics, and N-cycling microbial communities under three treatments: (i) untreated soil (control), (ii) soil with commercial N-P-K fertilizer, and (iii) soil with a commercial N-P-K fertilizer containing DMPP. The inclusion of DMPP in fertilizer reduced cumulative N₂O emissions by 81%-96% in near-neutral soils, primarily through suppression of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria, with minimal effects on ammonia-oxidizing archaea. In acidic soil, however, DMPP failed to significantly alter emissions or microbial gene abundances. Multivariate analyses and machine learning models identified soil pH, NH4⁺ availability, and ammonia monooxygenase (amoA) gene abundance as key predictors of DMPP efficacy and N₂O fluxes. These findings underscore the critical role of soil properties particularly pH in determining inhibitor performance and highlight the need for site-specific N management strategies to optimize fertilizer use and mitigate greenhouse gas emissions.","PeriodicalId":516860,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable microbiology","volume":"2 4","pages":"qvaf032"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13375300/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148709189","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
