Cladophora Governs Assembly of Epiphytic Communities and Shapes Antibiotic Resistome Dynamics in Qinghai Lake's Littoral Zone

The research team led by Prof. WU Chenxi from the Institute of Hydrobiology (IHB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have provided new insights into how life-stage-dependent processes in the macroalgal phycosphere govern epiphytic community assembly and resistome dissemination in an oligotrophic lake.
Flow Makes Passive eDNA Sampling Fast Enough to Beat Filtration in Rivers

A new study published in Environment International shows that water movement itself can be leveraged to improve eDNA capture. Under faster flow, passive collectors accumulate DNA quickly and, in running waters, can even outperform conventional filtration.
IRF3 Found to Play Novel Role in Regulating Hypoxia Signaling

A research group led by Prof. XIAO Wuhan from the Institute of Hydrobiology (IHB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences identified that IRF3 is a negative regulator of hypoxia signaling by retaining hypoxia-inducible factor α (HIF-α) in the cytoplasm.

This visit paved the way for me to consider establishing duckweed research in Sri Lanka. Although it was a short visit, I had a great and productive time in Wuhan.
