In this paper, a total of 22 bacterial isolates capable of fixing nitrogen and/or solubilizing phosphorus were inoculated, and mixed incubated in 15 liquid media. The isolates were obtained from soil with selective media, and not purified. After grown for 48 hours, the mixed cultures were continuously inoculated to the same media, and then incubated under the same conditions. The procedures were repeated for 12 times, and 15 stable bacterial mixtures (SBM) were obtained. Each SBM was purified, which contained two or three bacterial species. Agar plate bacteriostasis test showed that 6 mixed cultures of the SBM exhibited significant inhibition effects to one or more plant pathogens of Verticillium dahliae, Rhizoctonia solani, and Pseudomonas syringae. It was found that C7 and C15 were the two SBM with most obvious antibiological effect. SMB C15 had the ability of nitrogen fixation, and C4, C5 C7, C9, C14 and C15 showed the ability of phosphorus solubilization. These results suggested a possible approach to develop stable, synergistic, and multi-functional antibiological agents.

Background: Cross-sector collaboration is increasingly recognized as essential for addressing complex health challenges, including those in mental health. Industry-academic partnerships play a vital role in advancing research and developing health solutions, yet differing priorities and perspectives can make collaboration complex.
Objective: This study aimed to identify key principles to support effective industry-academic partnerships, from the perspective of industry partners, and develop this into actionable guidance, which can be applied across sectors.

This study examines how choral singing functions as a mechanism for sustaining ritual practice and reinforcing cultural identity. By integrating perspectives from musicology, social psychology, and cognitive science, it explores how collective vocal performance supports emotional attunement, group cohesion, and symbolic memory in culturally diverse contexts. A mixed-methods approach was applied, combining ethnographic observation, survey-based data, and cognitive measures with AI-informed frameworks such as voice emotion recognition and neural synchrony modeling.

This article presents a multiproxy investigation of metal samples obtained from 48 Nuragic figurines (so-called bronzetti) and three copper bun ingots. These objects originate from three prominent Sardinian sanctuaries and one unidentified site, dating to the late Nuragic period of the early first millennium BCE. The dataset significantly expands the existing scientific database and unwraps the complex fabrication biographies of the figurines from ore to finished object.

On January 26th 2024, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) recognized plausible grounds for genocide being committed in Gaza by Israel. A hallmark of the violence has been unprecedented attacks on health workers since October 7th, 2023. We use the word "genocide" to refer to this period of accelerated violence and displacement in Gaza, following ICJ findings, detailed reports by human rights organizations, and statements by genocide scholars concluding that Israel is indeed committing genocide.
