Ethiopian Wolves Become First Large Carnivore Documented Feeding on Nectar
Nectar foraging by Ethiopian wolves (Canis simensis) may contribute to the pollination of the Ethiopian red hot poker flower (Kniphofia foliosa), according to a new paper published in the journal Ecology...

Precambrian Earth: Co-evolution of life and geodynamics
Big article reviewing Earth-Life co-evolution in the Precambrian.
"The interaction of life and Earth was and is reciprocal, hence the term biogeodynamics...." True.

Dingoes Have Evolved from East Asian Dog-Like Ancestor: Study
Sep 23, 2024 by News Staff
Koungoulos et al. discovered for the first time clear links between fossils of the iconic Australian dingo and dogs from East Asia and New Guinea. Image credit: Sharkolot.
The dingo is a wild dog endemic to Australia with enigmatic origins. Dingoes are one of two remaining unadmixed populations of an early East Asian dog lineage, the other being wild dogs from the New Guinea highlands, but connections between these groups have long proved elusive. To investigate this issue, scientists from the University of Sydney and elsewhere examined ancient dingo remains found at Lake Mungo and Lake Milkengay, in western New South Wales, Australia. Their findings suggest that the dingo came from East Asia via Melanesia and challenge previous claims that it derived from pariah dogs of India or Thailand...

Transparent mice.
"The addition of common dye molecules that absorb in the near ultraviolet and blue regions improve optical transparency in nearby longer wavelengths. In essence, by causing sharp absorption in the blue region, the refractive index in the red part of the spectrum is increased without increasing absorption."
"By applying the Lorentz oscillator model for the dielectric properties of tissue components and absorbing molecules, we predicted that dye molecules with sharp absorption resonances in the near-ultraviolet spectrum (300 to 400 nm) and blue region of the visible spectrum (400 to 500 nm) are effective in raising the real part of the refractive index of the aqueous medium at longer wavelengths when dissolved in water, which is in agreement with the Kramers-Kronig relations. As a result, water-soluble dyes can effectively reduce the refractive index contrast between water and lipids, leading to optical transparency of live biological tissues."
The dye molecule they used? Tartrazine. Also known as "Yellow 5". Used in Doritos.
"So far, the scientists behind the new discovery have used the method to see the organs in a mouse's intact abdomen, glimpse the pulsing vessels surrounding a rodent skull, and to get an exceptionally clear view of muscle tissue through a microscope."

Our Bigger Brains Came With a Downside: Faster Aging
The darker green regions of the brain show the parts that have expanded the most during human evolution. A new study shows that they are the same sections that shrink the most during aging.Credit...Vickery et al., Science Advances, 2024

A study comparing chimpanzee and human brains suggests that the regions that grew the most during human evolution are the most susceptible to aging.
