Epitypification of Merismopedia tranquilla (Cyanobacteria) prompts phylogenetic reassessment of the genus and the description of two morphologically similar genera

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The genus Merismopedia is morphologically characterized by its distinctive colony arrangement yet exhibits considerable variability among species. Recent studies suggested that Merismopedia is polyphyletic, and its most likely true lineage was provisionally placed within the Microcystaceae. However, the available molecular data for most of the

How do I publish the name of a new species of algae? A basic guide

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract A basic guide to the requirements of the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants for the publication of a valid name of new species (and infraspecific taxa) of living algae is provided. It is intended to aid phycologists so that an accurate inventory of the world's algal diversity is achieved.

Activity of ethyl acetate extracts of marine-derived fungi against active and hypoxia-induced dormant Mycobacterium

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacy & Pharmacognosy Research
Context: Tuberculosis requires long therapy (6-9 months) to eradicate the tubercles from the body completely. This is partly caused by the ability of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to induce a dormant state that exhibits a resistant phenotype against recent ...

Understanding marine biodiversity patterns and drivers: The fall of Icarus

open access: yesMarine Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity patterns are fundamental in our understanding of the distribution of life, ecosystem function, and conservation. In this concept analysis, A survey of the existing knowledge on marine biodiversity patterns and drivers across latitudes, longitudes, and depths indicates that none of the postulated patterns represent a rule.

Marine Fungal Metabolites: A Promising Source for Antibiofilm Compounds

open access: yesMolecules
There is an urgent need for new alternative compounds with distinct modes of action due to the global rise in antibiotic resistance and the associated risks to public health. It is currently established that between 40 and 80% of bacterial biofilms cause
