Student (m/f/d) | B.Sc. project - Elemental analysis of symbiotic bark and ambrosia beetle fungi

 


We are currently looking for a motivated student (f/m/d) for a B.Sc. project at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology in Jena (Germany). In this project, the student will work with symbiotic filamentous fungi of bark and ambrosia beetles under laboratory conditions. The student will explore and describe the total elemental composition of fungal mycelium and compare it with other non-insect associated beetles as well as with competitive and wood-degrading fungi.

Both bark and ambrosia beetles, which typically colonize rather nutrient-poor woody substrates (like phloem or xylem of weakened trees), are associated with a broad range of microbes such as filamentous fungi, bacteria, and yeasts. To date, only little is known about the role of these microbes and how they support the survival of their beetle hosts. Especially some of the associated filamentous fungi are believed to be of high nutritional value for the beetles, and thus ensure the successful development of beetles in such a challenging environment. In many cases, the beetles themselves are unable to survive without their fungal partners. However, our current knowledge about the nutritional value of these fungi is limited as detailed studies are lacking. Therefore, a comparative study on the elemental composition of different symbiotic and non-symbiotic fungi will be of crucial importance to understand how these beneficial fungi support their beetle hosts.

Within this project, a student will analyse and quantify the most important elements (such as C, N, P, S, Ca, Mg, Mn, and K) for the very first time of several bark and ambrosia beetle fungi using state-of-the-art techniques focussing on:

  • Cultivation of fungi under sterile conditions
  • Sample preparation
  • Analyzation of samples using ICP-OES, ICP-MS, and an element analyser for C and N
  • Comparison of results between different tested fungi

This study will be a collaboration between the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology and the Landesamt für Landwirtschaft und Ländlichen Raum Thüringen (TLLLR) in Jena (Germany). The analysis will take place at the TLLLR.

If you are generally interested in microbiology, mycology and ecology, and want to find out more about this project (e.g. details, start date), don´t hesitate to get in contact with us.

Student research Assistant (f/m/d)

Recent evidence has indicated that the phenomenon of diel vertical migration (DVM) is influenced by the molecular circadian clock. However, characterizations of the clock in organisms that undergo DVM are scant. Preliminary evidence indicates the existence of a circadian clock in two marine copepods that undergo DVM to different degrees--Acartia clausii and Acartia tonsa. We are interested in establishing a catalog of genes expressed in a circadian manner and/or under circadian control in these organisms using transcriptome analysis techniques. To this end we have sequenced a 48-hour time series RNA-seq data-set from A. clausii (with data from A. tonsa to follow). We seek an enthusiastic student to help carry this analysis forward. The candidate’s initial tasks will include assembling and annotation the transcriptomes, and identifying genes with circadian expression patterns. Comparative analyses based on this data will follow (also to be performed by the student).

The student research assistant position entails a workload of 40 hours/month. Payment will be € 12,68 per hour for students with a bachelor degree and € 10,91 per hour without a bachelor degree. The position is to be filled as soon as possible. The candidate must be enrolled in a bachelors or masters program at a university in Germany at the time of application.
