Haloquadratum walsbyi

Anthony Edward Walsby, FRS (died April 14, 2024[1]) was the Emeritus Professor of Microbiology at the School of Biological Sciences, University of Bristol.[citation needed]

He was a researcher in the fields of Algae, Cyanobacteria, lake ecology, gas vesicles and genetics, covering the European lakes and Baltic Sea.[2] He is noted for his discovery of Haloquadratum walsbyi in brine ponds on the Sinai Peninsula in 1980.[3] He was elected Fellow of the Royal Society, 11 March 1993.[4]

Specifically his research included:

  • Gas vesicles of cyanobacteria: physiology; structure; molecular biology; ecology
  • The natural selection of gas vesicles in relation to depth of lakes and oceans
  • Population genetics of cyanobacteria using PCR on single filaments from lakes
  • The cyanobacterium Planktothrix rubescens in stratified lakes
  • Calculating the daily integrals of growth and photosynthesis in lakes
