Fungal Antimicrobial Resistance: Mechanisms, Drivers, and Global Clinical Burden

ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fungal antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing concern for world health caused by an increase in multidrug‐resistant infections, an increase in environmental reservoirs, and the ineffectiveness of current antifungal treatments. Fungal infections continue to be largely excluded from AMR initiatives while causing over 1.6 million deaths ...

Structure Elucidation and Total Synthesis of Granolides A–C: Ethyl‐branched Sesquiterpenes From the Tropical Frog Gephyromantis granulatus

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Males of the tropical frog Gephyromantis granulatus carry unique ethyl‐branched sesquiterpenoid macrolactones in their scent glands. Their structure elucidation was performed by GC/MS, leading to the proposed structures of the granolides. A flexible enantioselective synthesis confirmed the structures and allowed determination of their absolute ...

Enemy release: loss of parasites in invasive freshwater bivalves Sinanodonta woodiana and Corbicula fluminea

Ecography, EarlyView.
Invasive freshwater bivalves harm native species, ecosystems and biodiversity, and incur economic costs. The enemy release hypothesis posits that invasive species are released from enemies during the invasion process, giving them a competitive advantage in the new environment.

Endemic Bird of the Day : Hispaniolan Mango

Caribbean Endemic Bird Festival (CEBF) day 160 poster, dedicated to the Hispaniolan Mango. Not too long ago, the Puerto Rican Mango and Hispaniolan Mango were thought to be the same species, called the Antillean Mango.

Climatic drivers prevail in montane and lowland Odonata latitudinal diversity gradients, but human modification erodes lowland patterns

Ecography, EarlyView.
Latitudinal diversity gradients (LDGs) arise from the interplay of historical, ecological, and evolutionary processes, yet these drivers may differ across landforms. Mountains, with steep elevational and climatic gradients, often sustain distinct diversity dynamics compared with adjacent lowlands, where vertical climatic gradients are weak and human ...

Endemic bird of the day : Least Pauraque

Caribbean Endemic Bird Festival (CEBF) day 142 poster, dedicated to the Least Pauraque. Although the avian family name Caprimulgidae does actually hail from myths purporting that these birds suckled (chupa) on goats’ (cabra) udders, the Least Pauraque ...

Species traits mediate the abundant‐center patterns in ground‐dwelling mammal and bird species in China

Ecography, EarlyView.
The abundance center hypothesis (ACH) posits that species abundance peaks at distribution centers; however, empirical support remains inconsistent. This study tested the generality of the ACH and investigated species traits as mediators of abundance–distance relationships.

Inverse sky islands: lowland river valleys drive microbial divergence while high elevations select for convergence in massive mountain ecosystems

Ecography, EarlyView.
Mountain ecosystems are often interpreted through the lens of the ‘sky island' model, where high‐elevation habitats function as isolated archipelagos. However, this model's applicability to massive, topographically complex mountain ranges where highlands are continuous and lowlands are fragmented remains untested.
