Coronamoeba villafranca gen. nov. sp. nov. (Amoebozoa, Dermamoebida) challenges the correlation of morphology and phylogeny in Amoebozoa [PDF]
Coronamoeba villafranca gen. nov. sp. nov. is a small amoeba isolated from the surface planktonic biotope in the Bay of Villefranche (Mediterranean Sea). It has a confusing set of morphological and molecular characters.

Check-list of microscopic protosteloid amoebae from the Southwest of Europe [PDF]
A biodiversity survey for protosteloid amoebae was carried out in Spain, Portugal and France between 2005 and 2010. Samples were collected from three different microhabitats – aerial litter, ground litter, and bark of living plants – in a total of 97 ...

The emerging picture of the mitochondrial protein import complexes of Amoebozoa supergroup [PDF]
Background The existence of mitochondria-related organelles (MROs) is proposed for eukaryotic organisms. The Amoebozoa includes some organisms that are known to have mitosomes but also organisms that have aerobic mitochondria.

Checklist of Myxomycetes (Amoebozoa) of the Polish Tatra Mts
The Tatra Mts are the highest mountain range in the Carpathians and are an important biodiversity region for many organisms. Plants, animals, and fungi are better studied in this region, while myxomycetes still remain understudied.

Phylogenetic position of Multicilia marina and the evolution of Amoebozoa [PDF]
Recent molecular phylogenetic studies have led to the erection of the phylum Amoebozoa, uniting naked and testate lobose amoebae, the mycetozoan slime moulds and amitochondriate amoeboid protists (Archamoebae). Molecular data together with ultrastructural evidence have suggested a close relationship between Mycetozoa and Archamoebae, classified ...

Dianema nivale – A Myxomycete (Amoebozoa) new to the Antarctic [PDF]
Abstract Myxomycetes (Protista - Amoebozoa) are worldwide distributed organisms, but still poorly known from the Antarctic. While working on fungi and similar organisms found in Stinker Point, Elephant Island - Antarctica in January/February 2018 we found 24 sporangia of Dianema nivale, which is cited for the first time to the Antarctica.

Comprehensive phylogenetic reconstruction of amoebozoa based on concatenated analyses of SSU-rDNA and actin genes. [PDF]
Evolutionary relationships within Amoebozoa have been the subject of controversy for two reasons: 1) paucity of morphological characters in traditional surveys and 2) haphazard taxonomic sampling in modern molecular reconstructions.

Phylogenics and Patterns of Molecular Evolution in Amoebozoa [PDF]
My dissertation explores several aspects of the relationship between morphological and molecular evolution in amoeboid lineages: Chapter 1 - General Introduction: This chapter provides an overview of the most pressing issues in Amoebozoa phylogeny that are dealt with in the remainder of the thesis Chapter 2 - Reducing the impact of PCR-mediated ...

Did terrestrial diversification of amoebas (amoebozoa) occur in synchrony with land plants? [PDF]
Evolution of lineage diversification through time is an active area of research where much progress has been made in the last decade. Contrary to the situation in animals and plants little is known about how diversification rates have evolved in most ...

A landscape of gene regulation in the parasitic amoebozoa Entamoeba spp.
Entamoeba are amoeboid extracellular parasites that represent an important group of organisms for which the regulatory networks must be examined to better understand how genes and functional processes are interrelated.
