tRNA signatures reveal a polyphyletic origin of SAR11 strains among alphaproteobacteria. by Katherine C H Amrine, Wesley D Swingley, David H Ardell

“…Here we develop simple phyloclassifiers from bioinformatically derived tRNA Class-Informative Features (CIFs), features predicted to target tRNAs for specific interactions within the tRNA interaction network. Our tRNA CIF-based model robustly and accurately classifies alphaproteobacterial genomes into one of seven undisputed monophyletic orders or families, despite great variability in tRNA gene complement sizes and base compositions. …”

Mineralogical controls of the oceanic nickel cycle by Lena Chen, Autum R. Downey, Corey Archer, Susan H. Little, William B. Homoky, Caroline L. Peacock

“…Using nickel (Ni) as an example, we show how manganese (Mn) minerals control its isotopic composition in oxic marine sediments. By analysing synthetic and natural samples, and simulating sediment diagenesis, we find that most Ni isotope variability in modern Mn-rich sediments is driven by the relative contribution of two bonding mechanisms – adsorption to and structural incorporation into Mn oxides – which evolve during Mn mineral aging and transformation. …”
