Microeukaryotes are more vulnerable than picoeukaryotes to reservoir salinization: Evidence from multi-year high-frequency monitoring.

In freshwater ecosystems, rising salinity driven by factors such as climate change and urbanization can severely threaten ecosystem services. Eukaryotic plankton, a vital component of freshwater ecosystems, spans a size range from picoeukaryotic plankton (0.2-3 μm) to microeukaryotic plankton (3-200 μm), each exhibiting unique ecological functions and environmental response traits. Changes in the ...

Associations of indoor bacterial, metabolomic, and other chemical exposures with allergic rhinitis in school-aged children.

BACKGROUND: The indoor environment has been implicated as a critical factor in the development of allergic diseases. However, the interplay among indoor microbiota, metabolites, and other environmental chemicals in relation to childhood allergic rhinitis (AR) remains underexplored, particularly in subtropical regions. This study investigates the joint associations of multi-omics profiles in classr...
