An updated classification of cyanobacterial orders and families based on phylogenomic and polyphasic analysis

Otakar Strunecky et al.

Summary: Cyanobacterial taxonomy is undergoing rapid changes due to advancements in 16S rRNA gene sequencing and new classification workflows. A study has reconstructed a robust phylogenomic tree using genomic sequences and established a polyphasic classification system for Cyanobacteria. This system incorporates both phylogenomic and phenotypic data to provide useful information for professionals in the field. However, the study also highlights the need for integrating genomic data to conclusively classify a large number of cyanobacterial genera in the future.

What is a biocrust? A refined, contemporary definition for a broadening research community

Bettina Weber et al.

Summary: Studies of biocrusts have grown in recent years with a broader literature, increased research scope, and incorporation into global perspectives and models. This review aims to establish a clear and comprehensive definition of biocrusts, highlighting their ecological relevance and ecosystem services. The four defining elements of biocrusts are physical structure, functional characteristics, habitat, and taxonomic composition. The review also covers outgroups and different community types falling under the biocrust definition. The suggested universal definition emphasizes the association between soil particles and photoautotrophic and heterotrophic organisms living within or on top of the uppermost millimeters of soil.

Mojavia aguilerae and M. dolomitestris - two new Nostocaceae (Cyanobacteria) species from the Americas

Lauren M. Baldarelli et al.

Summary: This study described two new Mojavia species from the Atacama Desert in Chile and the Mojave Desert in the USA, which strengthened Mojavia's position as a sister genus to Nostoc. The two new species exhibited unique morphological and ecological characteristics, as well as clear differences from Nostoc.

Trichotorquatus gen. nov. - a new genus of soil cyanobacteria discovered from American drylands

Nicole Pietrasiak et al.

Summary: Cyanobacteria are vital components of dryland soils and the newly described genus Trichotorquatus is based on four new species isolated from various regions in California, USA and Chile. These species are morphologically distinct but phylogenetically closely related, with potential for further differentiation using molecular data. The study highlights the challenge of recognizing diversity in this cryptic genus due to the presence of multiple ribosomal operons.
