Escovopsis  is a common inhabitant of fungus-growing ant colonies that have co-evolved with these insects. The present study introduces 13 new species isolated from attine nests collected in Argentina, Brazil, Costa Rica, Mexico, and Panama. doi.org/10.3114/sim.20… UNESP - São Paulo State University

Excited to share our paper describing a novel genus of an obligately anaerobic bacterium 'Sporanaerobium hydrogeniformans' from a hot spring.
This work was conducted as part of PhD work of Sai Hivarkar at Agharkar Research Institute with funding support from SERB.

Saccharomyces. What secrets lie in the family responsible for nearly all bread, fermented drinks, and #biofuels ? This landmark study led by @glbioenergy scientists @uwmadison uncovered new useful traits in the biodiversity of these wild yeasts: energy.wisc.edu/news/landmark-…

Yeast aren't always easy to classify - but as more genomes are being published, we can use this information to inform our classifications.

See this new paper led by Marizeth Groenewald with input from wonderful colleagues in the yeast community: ingentaconnect.com/content/wfbi/s…

This snake with green fur was thought to be a new species, but it turns out that it’s a puff-faced water snake with algae growing on its body from spending too much time in a swamp

Our latest #preprint reports a novel genus of anaerobic bacteria cultured from a hot spring in India.
Well done Sai Hivarkar
