The Discovery of Sheathia meghalayensis   Elaya Perumal & Palanisamy, 2026 The world of phycology—the study of algae—just got a little more fascinating. While marine red algae dominate our coastal vocabulary, their freshwater counterparts, the Rhodophyta, represent an ancient and highly specialized evolutionary lineage. (Photo credit: Dr. U Elaya Perumal, Botanical Survey of India) In a paper published in Current Science , researchers U. Elaya Perumal and M. Palanisamy from the Botanical Survey of India announced a major taxonomic breakthrough: the discovery of a distinct, critically endangered freshwater red alga named Sheathia meghalayensis  Elaya Perumal & Palanisamy, 2026 . (Photo credit: Dr. U Elaya Perumal, Botanical Survey of India) The Background: Filling a Critical Gap in India’s Biodiversity Northeastern India is recognized as a global biodiversity hotspot, yet its freshwater macroalgae have historically lagged behind marine species in documentation.

 PhD Fellowship Fully Funded in Plant-Microbiome Assembly at University of Copenhagen in Denmark PhD fellowship in plant-microbiome assembly;  The Department of Biology, Section of Microbiology invites applicants for a PhD fellowship to study social interactions in the plant root microbiome.Start date is (expected to be) 1 August 2024 or as soon as possible thereafter. The project ; Novel strategies for eco-friendly and sustainable food production seek to explore and exploit the potential of the plant microbiome to promote growth, acquire nutrients, and induce resistance against pests and pathogens.  Yet, we lack a fundamental understanding of the ecological factors controlling the establishment of a beneficial plant microbiome. Hence, we seek to test the ecological and evolutionary role of microbe-microbe interaction in the assembly and maturation of complex plant root microbiomes. This project investigates the role of microbial interactions as key drivers for microbiome...
