A breakthrough study of freshwater harmful algal communities led by Dave Hambright, a Regents’ Professor of Biology, has discovered that complementary genes in bacteria and algae living in the same algal colonies coordinate the use and movement of nutrients within the colony. This research, funded by the National Science Foundation, has been published in the journal Microbiome.
