Paracamallanus cyathopharynx (Baylis, 1923) Infection in Clarias gariepinus (Burchell, 1822): Linking the Morphology of Wound‐Inflicting Structures to Histopathology

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Paracamallanus cyathopharynx (Baylis, 1923) specimens were collected from the rectum of the African sharptooth catfish, Clarias gariepinus in Lake Heritage, Crocodile River in the Limpopo River system and in the Vaal River below the Vaal Dam. Attached and unattached parasites were studied with light and scanning electron microscopy along with ...

Conservation Management Strategies Shape Glucocorticoid Levels in African Elephant Populations More Than Parasite Load

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Understanding the factors influencing physiological stress is essential for interpreting how wildlife responds to contrasting environmental and management conditions. Across 19 South African elephant populations, we found that smaller reserves, self‐drive tourism, and high elephant density under low vegetation productivity were associated with elevated

Geometrical isomerization of hydroxycinnamic acid under UV‐light: Structural plasticity as a driver of metabolite complexity

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
UV irradiation drives metabolite complexity through photoisomerization of hydroxycinnamic acid‐containing compounds in plants. The olefin functional group of hydroxycinnamic acid enables structural plasticity through trans/cis isomerization. Multiple chromophores within a molecule can amplify UV‐induced transformations.

Microplastic Dynamics in Sediment Layers of Two Ramsar‐Designated Wetlands

Water and Environment Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Little is known about the vertical and spatial dynamics of microplastics in relation to hydrology and land use, particularly in African context. This study aimed to assess the abundance, type, colour and vertical distribution of microplastics in sediment from two Ramsar‐designated wetlands, the Makuleke and Nylsvley. Sediment core samples were

Mathematics Skills in South Africa: Data Reliability, Quantifying the Undersupply, and Projecting the Future

South African Journal of Economics, Volume 94, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT South Africa enjoys access to reliable data on mathematics skills among youths, skills which are vital for postschool opportunities and national development. But the data are underutilised and the available research could be communicated better. This article discusses several perceptions not supported by evidence.
