Article Abstract
Soil organisms are diverse taxonomically and functionally. This ecosystem experiences highly complex networks of interactions, but may also present functionally independent entities. Plant roots, a metabolically active hotspot in the soil, take an essential part in shaping the rhizosphere. Tracking the dynamics of root-microbe interactions at high spatial resolution is currently limited due to methodological intricacy. In this study, we developed a novel microfluidics-based device enabling direct imaging of root-bacteria interactions in real time.

Fluorescent mesoporous silica nanoparticles for targeted tebuconazole delivery against brown root rot in rubber trees.
Plant Dis
September 2025
Hainan University, Haikou, Hainan, China;
Brown root rot, caused by Phellinus noxius, is a major threat to rubber tree cultivation, resulting in substantial economic losses. Traditional control methods, such as root irrigation with fungicides, are labor-intensive, water-consuming, and inefficient, particularly in regions with limited water resources. This study introduces fluorescent mesoporous silica nanoparticles (FL-MSNs) as a novel delivery platform for tebuconazole to target P.

Department of Orthodontics, College of Dentistry, University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida, USA.
Objective(s): In this pilot study, exosomes from saliva were isolated and tested for the presence of metabolomic biomarkers for physiological external root resorption and/or pathological alveolar bone resorption.
Settings And Sample Population: Saliva samples of 20 individuals in the mixed dentition stage of dental development.
Materials And Methods: Saliva was obtained from healthy control children with resorbing primary teeth or children with localised aggressive periodontitis (LAP) showing alveolar bone loss but little root resorption.
Incorporating microbiomes into the One Health Joint Plan of Action.

Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, Rome, Italy.
The One Health Joint Plan of Action (2022-2026), developed by the United Nations Quadripartite (FAO, UNEP, WHO, and WOAH), provides a comprehensive framework to address global health risks at the human-animal-plant-environment interface. However, it overlooks the critical role of microbiomes-complex microbial communities that underpin the health of all ecosystems and are central to the One Health paradigm. Microbiomes regulate key processes, such as nutrient cycling, pathogen suppression, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) dynamics, and environmental resilience, making their inclusion essential for achieving One Health goals.

This article demonstrates maximum power point tracking (MPPT) using a DC-DC boost converter. It introduces an intelligent control technique with fuzzy-based pattern search (PS) optimization for the MPPT controller, enhancing energy conversion efficiency. The fuzzy-PS approach is further refined with PA optimization.
