Myxomycete diversity in a humid montane forest on the eastern slopes of the Peruvian Andes [PDF]

Plant Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Background – The humid montane forests on the eastern slopes of the Peruvian Andes are known for their high biodiversity and natural resources. While their incredibly rich plant and animal communities are still in the process of being discovered, the ...

Myxomycetes of the Atlantic Rainforest: species on the ground litter from Pedra Talhada Biological Reserve (Alagoas, Brazil) [PDF]

Rodriguésia, 2023
The Brazilian Atlantic Rainforest is considered one of the world biodiversity hotspots, with high levels of endemism. Studies on the myxobiota of Atlantic Rainforest have been carried out mainly in the Northeast region of Brazil but the ground litter ...

Multigene phylogeny of the order Physarales (Myxomycetes, Amoebozoa): shedding light on the dark-spored clade.

Persoonia, 2023
The class Myxomycetes consists of free-living protists characterised by their complex life cycle, which includes both microscopic (amoebae, flagellates and cists) and macroscopic stages (spore-bearing fruiting bodies, sclerotia, and plasmodia). Within it,

First insights into the phylogeny of the order <i>Cribrariales</i> (<i>Amoebozoa</i>, <i>Myxomycetes</i>), with the definite exclusion of the genus <i>Enteridium</i>. [PDF]

IMA Fungus
Abstract The order Cribrariales is among the least studied higher groups in the Myxomycetes, with numerous taxonomic problems and scarce molecular data available in public databases. Of the three genera currently accepted, viz.

Comparative Genomics Supports Sex and Meiosis in Diverse Amoebozoa [PDF]

Genome Biology and Evolution, 2018
Sex and reproduction are often treated as a single phenomenon in animals and plants, as in these organisms reproduction implies mixis and meiosis. In contrast, sex and reproduction are independent biological phenomena that may or may not be linked in the majority of other eukaryotes. Current evidence supports a eukaryotic ancestor bearing a mating type

Multigene phylogeny resolves deep branching of Amoebozoa

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2015
Amoebozoa is a key phylum for eukaryote phylogeny and evolutionary history, but its phylogenetic validity has been questioned since included species are very diverse: amoebo-flagellate slime-moulds, naked and testate amoebae, and some flagellates. 18S rRNA gene trees have not firmly established its internal topology.

The Cellular and Developmental Roles of Cullins, Neddylation, and the COP9 Signalosome in Dictyostelium discoideum

Frontiers in Physiology, 2022
Cullins (CULs) are a core component of cullin-RING E3 ubiquitin ligases (CRLs), which regulate the degradation, function, and subcellular trafficking of proteins.

The emerging picture of the mitochondrial protein import complexes of Amoebozoa supergroup

BMC Genomics, 2017
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.

First isolation of Leptomyxa (Amoebozoa, Leptomyxida) from endozoic conditions: an interaction between two common soil organisms

The European Zoological Journal, 2022
We report the first isolation of a widely distributed free-living soil amoeba Leptomyxa (Amoebozoa, Leptomyxida) from endozoic conditions. The amoebae were detected after 14 days following inoculation of the intestine of the earthworm Lumbricus ...

Whole genome sequencing of historical specimens from the world's largest fungal collection yields high‐quality assemblies

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary High‐throughput molecular studies of museum specimens (museomics) have great potential in biodiversity research, but fungal historical collections have scarcely been examined, leading to no comprehensive methodological assessments. Here we present a whole genome sequencing (WGS) project conducted at the Fungarium of the Royal Botanic Gardens ...
