Identification of "Ryan Virus" as an amoeba of the genus Hartmannella. [PDF]
A recent paper (Pereira, et al., 1966) reported the isolation in Britain of several strains of an antibiotic-resistant infective agent that caused unusual cytopathic effects when inoculated into cell cultures. The new agent was evidently recoverable from the respiratory tract in certain patients, mostly young children, with illnesses of varying ...

Precise and sufficiently detailed morphological taxonomy is vital in biology, for example in the accurate interpretation of ecological and palaeoecological datasets, especially in polar regions, where biodiversity is poor. Testate amoebae on the Antarctic Peninsula (AP) are well-documented and variations in their population size have recently been ...

Transfer of the Thecate Amoeba Lecythium mutabilis to a Novel Genus Omnivora (Fiscullidae, Thecofilosea, Cercozoa) [PDF]
AbstractThecofilosea is a class in Cercozoa (Rhizaria) comprising mainly freshwater‐inhabiting algivores. Recently, numerous isolates of thecofilosean amoebae have been cultured and were characterized by an integrated morphological and molecular approach.

A Novel Protistan Trait Database Reveals Functional Redundancy and Complementarity in Terrestrial Protists (Amoebozoa and Rhizaria). [PDF]
ABSTRACT The inclusion of functional traits of protists in environmental sequencing surveys, in addition to the traditional taxonomic framework, is essential for a better understanding of their roles and impacts on ecosystem processes. We provide a database of functional traits for a widespread and important clade of protists—the Amoebozoa—based on ...

Amoebae of the genus Acanthamoeba – pathological agents in humans [PDF]
Abstract Free living, cosmopolitan amoebae of the genus Acanthamoeba present a serious risk to human health. As facultative human parasites, these amoebae may cause health and life-threatening diseases, such as Acanthamoeba keratitis ...

Are physiological oscillations physiological?
Abstract figure legend Mechanisms and functions of physiological oscillations. Abstract Despite widespread and striking examples of physiological oscillations, their functional role is often unclear. Even glycolysis, the paradigm example of oscillatory biochemistry, has seen questions about its oscillatory function.

The testate amoeba genus Cryptodifflugia is reviewed. Thirty-two taxa are described. Four taxa, namely Cryptodifflugia collum (Chardez, 1971), Cryptodifflugia minuta (Playfair, 1917), Cryptodifflugia patinata (Schönborn, 1965), Cryptodifflugia psammophila (Golemansky, 1970), appear as new combinations. A dichotomous identification key is provided.

Dimer models from mirror symmetry and quivering amoebae [PDF]
Dimer models are 2-dimensional combinatorial systems that have been shown to encode the gauge groups, matter content and tree-level superpotential of the world-volume quiver gauge theories obtained by placing D3-branes at the tip of a singular toric ...
