This study analyzes ancient sediment DNA to identify plant-microbe association signals in a 2-million-year-old Arctic ecosystem, finding rhizosphere-like microbial taxa and functional traits.

This study shows that knocking out OsVIT1 and OsVIT2 in rice increases seed iron content but reduces iron excess tolerance, revealing a trade-off between biofortification and toxicity resistance.

This study detects ancient fungal DNA in Otzi's gut, identifying Pseudogymnoascus species and proposing a bioinformatic pipeline for analyzing fungal aDNA in historical samples.
