Threat of mining to African great apes

J. Junker, L. Quoss, J. Valdez, M. Arandjelovic, A. Barrie, G. Campbell, S. Heinicke, T. Humle, C. Y. Kouakou, H. S. Kühl, I. Ordaz-Nemeth, H. M. Pereira, H. Rainer, J. Refisch, L. Sonter, T. Sop

The paper assesses mining's threat to African great apes by integrating mining data with ape distribution, finding one-third of the population faces mining-related risks.

Pneumococcal Evasion of Antibiotics via Metabolic Adaptation During Infection

T. Dao, H. Echlin, A. McKnight, E. Marr, J. Junker, Q. Jia, R. Hayden, J. Rosch

This study shows that S. pneumoniae evades fluoroquinolone antibiotics through metabolic adaptation that reduces reactive oxygen species production, enabling tolerance and fitness restoration.

Isotopic signatures induced by upwelling reveal regional fish populations in Lake Tanganyika

B. Ehrenfels, J. Junker, D. Namutebi, C. M. Callbeck, C. Dinkel, A. Kalangali, I. A. Kimirei, A. S. Mbonde, J. B. Mosille, E. A. Sweke, C. J. Schubert, O. Seehausen, C. E. Wagner, B. Wehrli

The paper uses isotopic analysis of fish from Lake Tanganyika to show regional population differences driven by hydrodynamics, but not diet or lipid content.

The genetic population structure of Lake Tanganyika's Lates species flock, an endemic radiation of pelagic top predators

J. A. Rick, J. Junker, I. A. Kimirei, E. A. Sweke, J. B. Mosille, C. Dinkel, S. Mwaiko, O. Seehausen, C. E. Wagner

The paper investigates genetic connectivity in four Lake Tanganyika Lates species using genomic sequencing, finding strong differentiation between species and weak structure within some species.

Structural genomic variation leads to unexpected genetic differentiation in Lake Tanganyika's sardines

J. Junker, J. A. Rick, P. B. McIntyre, I. Kimirei, E. A. Sweke, J. B. Mosille, B. Wehrli, C. Dinkel, S. Mwaiko, O. Seehausen, C. E. Wagner

The paper identifies sex-specific genomic regions and a segregating inversion in two Lake Tanganyika sardine species, revealing rapid XY sex determination evolution and population structure not explained by geography.
