PhD Position in Population Genomics and Genomics-Assisted Breeding of Short-Tailed Sheep Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München in Germany

Goethe University Frankfurt is offering a three-year Research Associate position linked to a PhD project in the Department of Evolutionary Ecology of Hymenoptera at the Institute of Ecology, Evolution and Diversity, Faculty of Biosciences. The doctoral research will focus on the ecology and evolution of host–pathogen interactions in pollinators. The specific project will be developed collaboratively with the successful candidate, taking into account their interests, expertise, and skills. Possib...

Postdoctoral researcher in population genomics at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) in Uppsala, based in the Department of Forest Mycology and Plant Pathology and connected to the Soil Microbiology Group. The project focuses on rye adaptation across contrasting environments, using population genomics to investigate how landrace, wild, weedy and elite rye populations differ genetically and how their associated microbiota may contribute to adaptation. The successful candidate w...

A four-year salaried PhD position is available at the Senckenberg Biodiversity and Climate Research Centre in Frankfurt, Germany, through the VEBITA project in collaboration with Marburg University and ISOE. The research will investigate how livestock management affects wildlife movement, biodiversity footprints, and conservation outcomes. The project is suited to applicants interested in wildlife ecology, biodiversity conservation, environmental science, livestock systems, and interdisciplinary...

Fully funded PhD opportunity in plant pathology and population genomics Rothamsted Research, with the PhD registered at the University of Bath in the United Kingdom, is offering a doctoral project titled Population Genomics and Evolution of Wheat Take-all Under Diverse Agronomic and Seed Treatment Practices for Integrated Pathogen Management . The research will investigate the population genomics and evolution of the pathogen responsible for wheat take-all disease under different agronomic pract...

PhD position in population genomics and adaptive evolution in the Hancock Lab at the Department of Botany, Purdue University, USA. The project, “Reconstructing evolutionary mechanisms of adaptation in plant systems,” will investigate how adaptation evolves in plants by combining genome-wide association studies (GWAS), population genomics, bioinformatics, and functional validation. The research integrates evolutionary biology, genetics, and computational analysis to connect genomic variation with...
