title: Summarising biometrics from the SAFRING database for southern African birds

description: Biometrics form a key characteristic of a species. Here, we provide a summary of biometrics held by the South African Bird Ringing Scheme (SAFRING), which was initiated in 1948, including measures of mass and lengths of the tarsus, head, culmen, tail and wing. We include all species in southern Africa for which there was sufficient data. Accordingly, we present biometric data for 674 of the 904 southern African bird species. We also investigated whether there were sex-specific differences for each species, and provide summaries for species where values significantly differed between the sexes. We found 376 species with significant sex-specific differences for at least one measure (e.g. mass). Although SAFRING holds data entries for many ringed individuals, a sizeable proportion of the entries was not useable as biometric data. Therefore, in this article, we aim to: 1) present a complete, standardised reference of summarised biometric data for the birds of southern Africa; 2) provide ringers with benchmark values that could guide data-capturing; 3) identify data-deficient species; and 4) highlight the importance of collecting and capturing biometric data carefully and consistently.

title: Spacer sequences for targeting lactate dehydrogenase (ldhA) in Escherichia coli K-12 through CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing

description: Cluster regularly interspersed short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-Cas9 is the dominant genome editing technique in contemporary biological research. The approach requires a guide RNA encoding a spacer sequence to target a specific location in the genome for editing; thereby, necessitating design for the spacer sequence. Typically, the spacer sequence is immediately adjacent to the protospacer adjacent motif (PAM). This work illustrates the approach by using an in-house MATLAB software to design the spacer sequence that would target the lactate dehydrogenase gene (<i>ldhA</i>) in <i>Escherichia coli </i>K-12 for editing. Specifically, the 20 nucleotide spacer sequences could be either on the sense and antisense DNA strands for the gene. Overall, this dataset should find use in biotechnology or metabolic engineering applications where the objective is to delete the <i>ldhA </i>gene to help redirect metabolic flux away from mixed acid fermentation during anaerobic growth of <i>E. coli</i> K-12 in glucose-based medium. <br><br>

title: The appendicular skeleton of the dwarf macronarian sauropod <i>Europasaurus holgeri</i> from the Late Jurassic of Germany and a re-evaluation of its systematic affinities

description: The Late Jurassic was a period of great diversity for sauropod dinosaurs, with different lineages of Neosauropoda flourishing, including several camarasauromorph taxa. Efforts made in recent years have resulted in a great increase in our current knowledge of basal camarasauromorph evolution, including both the detailed description of new and previously poorly known sauropods and expanded phylogenetic analyses. Although most recent phylogenies converge in their results on early camarasauromorph diversification, the phylogenetic position of <i>Europasaurus</i>, from the Late Jurassic of Germany, remains controversial despite the completeness of the material representing this species. Although <i>Europasaurus</i> was recovered as a relatively basal camarasauromorph in all phylogenetic analyses to date, some of them retrieved this taxon in a slightly more derived position, among basal brachiosaurids. <i>Europasaurus</i> is not only one of the most complete camarasauromorphs but also the first unequivocal dwarf that evolved through paedomorphosis, retaining several plesiomorphic characters, especially in the cranium. Cranial and axial material of <i>Europasaurus</i> has been described in detail but the appendicular skeleton has not. The current paper rectifies this by providing detailed descriptions and illustrations of its appendicular skeleton. In addition, an extensive re-evaluation of the systematic position of <i>Europasaurus</i> was done based on the three most substantial data sets published in recent years. These analyses resolved <i>Europasaurus</i> as a basal camarasauromorph in all cases, but brachiosaurid affinities remain plausible, especially considering the heterochronic evolution of the taxon.
