Ectocarpus Sphaericus
''Ectocarpus'' is a genus of filamentous brown alga that is a model organism for the genomics of multicellularity. Among possible model organisms in the brown algae, ''Ectocarpus'' was selected for the relatively small size of its mature thallus and the speed with which it completes its life cycle. The type species for the genus is ''Ectocarpus siliculosus'' ( Dillwyn) Lyngbye. The life history is an isomorphic to slightly kiheteromorphic alternation of generations, but asexual strains also exist. Taxonomy and Nomenclature In 1809, Dillwyn described ''Ectocarpus'' as another algae known as ''Conferva siliculosa'' basing from collected specimens by W.J. Hooker from Norfolk and East Sussex. In 1819, Lyngbye subsequently described ''Ectocarpus'' using a specimen from Denmark, citing ''C. siliculosa'' Dilwyn as its basionym. These brown algae are known members of heterokonts, which includes diatoms and oomycetes. Ectocarpales is known to be primitive from a phylogenetic standpoint ...

William Albert Setchell
William Albert Setchell (April 15, 1864 – April 5, 1943) was an American botanist and marine phycologist who taught at the University of California, Berkeley, where he headed the Botany Department. Among his publications are the ''Phycotheca Boreali-Americana'', a multi-volume specimen collection of dried algae, and the ''Algae of Northwestern America'', a reference work. Education Setchell was born in Norwich, Connecticut, to George Case Setchell and Mary Ann (Davis) Setchell. Setchell showed an early interest in natural history that was furthered during his years at the Norwich Free Academy. He went to Yale University as an undergraduate and to Harvard University for graduate work, where he studied with William Gilson Farlow, a specialist in cryptogams. He did his thesis work on the anatomy and morphology of kelps. Career After completing his PhD in 1890, Setchell took a post at the Sheffield Scientific School of Yale University as an assistant in biology. He rose to ...

Jean Pierre François Camille Montagne
Jean Pierre François Camille Montagne (15 February 1784 – 5 December 1866) was a French military physician and botanist who specialized in the fields of bryology and mycology. He was born in the commune of Vaudoy in the department of Seine-et-Marne. At the age of 14, Montagne joined the French navy, and took part in Napoleon's invasion of Egypt. In 1802 he returned to France to study medicine, and two years later became a military surgeon. In 1832, at the age of 48 he retired from military service to concentrate on the study of cryptogams (mosses, algae, lichens and fungi). In 1853 he was elected a member of the Académie des sciences. In 1845 he was one of the first scientists (with Marie-Anne Libert) to provide a description of ''Phytophthora infestans'', a potato blight fungus he referred to as ''Botrytis infestans''. Montagne is also known for investigations of mycological species native to Guyane. He contributed numerous articles to the ''Archives de Botanique'' and the ' ...

Vasudeva B
According to Hindu scriptures, Vasudeva (Sanskrit: वसुदेव, IAST: ''Vasudeva''), also called Anakadundubhi, (''anakas'' and ''dundubhis'' both refer to ''drums'', after the musicians who played these instruments at the time of his birth), is the father of the Hindu deities Krishna (Vāsudeva, i.e. "son of Vasudeva"), Balarama, and Subhadra. He was a king of the Vrishnis, and a Yadava prince. The son of the Yadava king Shurasena, he was also the cousin of Nanda, the foster-father of Krishna. His sister Kunti was married to Pandu. The patronymic ' (with a pronounced ''ā'') is a popular name of Krishna, the son of Vasudeva and Devaki. "Vāsudeva" is a vṛddhi, a derivative of the short form "Vasudeva", a linguistic pragmatic in Sanskrit signifying "of, belonging to, descended from". "Vasudeva" as an object of worship in Hinduism usually refers to the son (Krishna), rather than his father Vasudeva. Family Vasudeva was born to the Yadava king Shurasena in the Surase ...
