Despite extensive evidence showing that exposure to specific chemicals can lead to
disease, current research approaches and regulatory policies fail to address the chemical …

Networks are one of the most common ways to represent biological systems as complex sets
of binary interactions or relations between different bioentities. In this article, we discuss the …

Background Plants live with diverse microbial communities which profoundly affect multiple
facets of host performance, but if and how host development impacts the assembly, functions …

Root-associated microbes play a key role in plant performance and productivity, making
them important players in agroecosystems. So far, very few studies have assessed the …

Combination of anti-cancer drugs is broadly seen as way to overcome the often-limited
efficacy of single agents. The design and testing of combinations are however very …

Networks provide a powerful formalism for modeling complex systems by using a model of
pairwise interactions. But much of the structure within these systems involves interactions …

Biological entities are involved in intricate and complex interactions, in which uncovering the
biological information from the network concepts are of great significance. Benefiting from …

Grassland degradation is a retrogressive succession of grassland vegetation, which leads to
the loss of biodiversity and the degradation of ecosystem functions. Soil microbiomes play …

Biochar and metal-tolerant bacteria have been widely used in the remediation of heavy
metal contaminated soil. However, the synergistic effect of biochar-functional microbes on …

Soil salinization has emerged as a major factor with an adverse influence on agricultural
