Max Planck researchers describe Denisovan genome, illuminating the relationships between Denisovans and present-day humans. The analyses of an international team of researchers led by Svante Pääbo of the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany, show that the genetic variation of Denisovans was extremely low, suggesting that although they were present in large parts of Asia, their population was never large for long periods of time. In addition, a comprehensive list documents the genetic changes that set apart modern humans from their archaic relatives. Some of these changes concern genes that are associated with brain function or nervous system development.

Das Wachstum etwa von Tropfen, Staubteilchen oder magnetischen Domänen in einem Ferromagneten folgt oft ähnlichen Gesetzen wie das Knistern von Papier. Wie Forscher des Max-Planck-Instituts für Dynamik und Selbstorganisation mit einer Studie zur Magnetisierung eines Ferromagneten belegten, lässt sich die Verteilung der Sprünge beim Wachsen mit der Netzwerktheorie beschreiben.

Soft magnetic materials (SMMs) applied in electric engines transform energy from sustainable resources into electricity. Conventional SMMs, which are currently used in industry, are prone to damage under severe mechanical loads. Researchers from the Max-Planck-Institut für Eisenforschung (MPIE), the Technical University of Darmstadt and the Central South University, China, have developed a new design strategy that increases the lifetime of SMMs and paves the way for advanced applications like high-speed motors.

Die Herstellung chiraler, enantiomerenreiner Substanzen ist ein zentrales Bestreben der Chemie. Der hier präsentierte neue Ansatz zur asymmetrischen Synthese beruht auf der sauberen und atomökonomischen Umwandlung von aromatischen Startmaterialien.

Leaf beetles fascinate us because of their amazing variety of shapes and rich colouring. Their larvae, however, are dangerous plant pests. Larvae of the leaf beetle Chrysomela lapponica attack two different tree species: willow and birch. To fend off predator attacks, the beetle larvae produce toxic butyric acid esters or salicylaldehyde, whose precursors they ingest with their leafy food. Scientists of the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology in Jena, Germany, now found that a fundamental change in the genome has emerged in beetles that have specialized in birch: The activity of the salicylaldehyde producing enzyme salicyl alcohol oxidase (SAO) is missing in these populations, whereas it is present in willow feeders. For birch beetles, the loss of this enzyme and thereby the loss of salicylaldehyde is advantageous: the enzyme is no longer needed because its substrate salicyl alcohol is only present in willow leaves, but not in birch. Birch beetles can therefore save resources instead of costly producing the enzyme. First and foremost, however, the loss of salicylaldehyde also means that birch feeding populations do not betray themselves to their own enemies anymore, who can trace them because of the odorous substance.

Astronomen haben kalte Materieströme von Wasserstoff aus der Frühzeit des Universums beobachtet, die in eine ferne Galaxie fließen und dort als Grundstoff für die Entstehung neuer Sterne dienen. Das Team um Neil Crighton (Max-Planck-Institut für Astronomie und Swinburne University of Technology) nutzte einen Zufall: einen fernen, hellen Quasar, der das Gas wie eine Art kosmischer Scheinwerfer von hinten anleuchtet.
