Emerging pollutants (EPs), such as pharmaceuticals and personal care products (particularly antibiotics) and microplastics, pose significant threats to global water quality and human health, leading to increased interest in the use of constructed wetlands (CWs) for their purification. This paper reviews the literature from 2014 to 2024 on CWs' effectiveness in removing various EPs.

This study sequenced genomes from major Morchellaceae clades to clarify their ecological lifestyles, finding that true morels are primarily saprotrophic while some related truffles exhibit ectomycorrhizal traits. The research also reveals diversity in mating systems and provides new insights into the evolutionary nutrition strategies of these fungi.
