Research Interests
The head of the group is Prof Dave Scanlan, Professor in Marine Microbiology in the Department.
Prof. Scanlan has over 25 years research experience and has worked at the University of Warwick since 1990 and has more than 135 refereed research publications.
The lab maintains well-established fruitful collaborations with research groups within and outside the University of Warwick, bringing research to a new level of interdisciplinary effort.
The group has several main areas of research:
- Community structure and niche adaptation mechanisms in marine cyanobacteria
- Biotic causes of cyanobacterial cell mortality focusing on viral infection and protistan grazing
- Molecular genetics of nutrient assimilation and regulation in cyanobacteria
- Elucidating the consequences of lipid remodelling in marine bacteria
- Sensing environmental stimuli in cyanobacteria
- Light regulation of gene expression in cyanobacteria and eukaryotic algae
- Microbiology and molecular ecology of eukaryotic picophytoplankton
His ongoing work with the genera Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus is leading to a much more detailed understanding of why these organisms dominate the world's oceans. This has included, and in collaboration with other European research laboratories, the formal description and complete genome sequence of a Prochlorococcus isolate, an organism with the smallest known genome for a free-living photoautotroph, as well as the comparative genomic analysis of several marine Synechococcus isolates. The latter is revealing considerable differences in gene complement between closely related genotypes, a feature likely underpinning differences in the spatial partitioning of individual genetic lineages in situ.
