Microbial Diversity of Pinnacle and Conical Microbial Mats in the Perennially Ice-Covered Lake Untersee, East Antarctica

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Antarctic perennially ice-covered lakes provide a stable low-disturbance environment where complex microbially mediated structures can grow. Lake Untersee, an ultra-oligotrophic lake in East Antarctica, has the lake floor covered in benthic microbial mat

Exploring the Regional Diversity of Eukaryotic Phytoplankton in the English Channel by Combining High‐Throughput Approaches

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 6, December 2025.
By combining flow cytometry and high‐throughput sequencing, we reveal seasonal and spatial variations in the size, composition, and diversity of phytoplankton in the English Channel, highlighting the dynamics of pico‐, nano‐, and microphytoplankton and environmental factors, with the Seine Bay as a hotspot of taxonomic and functional diversity ...

Shedding light on vampires: the phylogeny of vampyrellid amoebae revisited. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
With the advent of molecular phylogenetic techniques the polyphyly of naked filose amoebae has been proven. They are interspersed in several supergroups of eukaryotes and most of them already found their place within the tree of life.

Parasites dominate hyperdiverse soil protist communities in Neotropical rainforests [PDF]

, 2017
High animal and plant richness in tropical rainforest communities has long intrigued naturalists. It is unknown if similar hyperdiversity patterns are reflected at the microbial scale with unicellular eukaryotes (protists).

Description of Phaeobola aeris gen. nov., sp. nov (Rhizaria, Cercozoa, Euglyphida) Sheds Light on Euglyphida’s Dark Matter

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, 2020
The majority of Euglyphida species are characterised by shells with imbricated silica scales. Environmental surveys indicate a large unexplored diversity and recent efforts hinted at a certain diversity of yet undescribed, inconspicuous, scale‐lacking ...

A Pilot Investigation of the Hidden Communities Associated With Dryas octopetala L. (Rosaceae) in Svalbard Using DNA Metabarcoding

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2025.
A single marker revealed a considerable diversity of organisms associate with Dryas octopetala. The rhizosphere contains more taxa than the phyllosphere. Some taxa are cited for the first time in the Svalbard Archipelago. The use of different DNA marker will increase diversity data in the Svalbard Archipelago.

The vampyrellid amoeba Strigomyxa ruptor gen. et sp. nov. and its remarkable strategy to acquire algal cell contents

Ecology and Evolution
The vampire amoebae (Vampyrellida, Rhizaria) inhabit freshwater, marine, and terrestrial ecosystems and consume a wide range of eukaryotic prey. This includes diverse microalgae, fungi, and microscopic animals.

Fate of aerobic bacterial granules with fungal contamination under different organic loading conditions [PDF]

, 2010
Aerobic sludge granulation is an attractive new technology for biological wastewater treatment. However, the instability of aerobic granules caused by fungal growth is still one of the main problems encountered in granular bioreactors.

Microbial and bryospheric photosynthesis of boreal peatlands have peatland‐type‐specific responses to long‐term drying

New Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 3, Page 1336-1350, November 2025.
Summary The impacts of drying on bryospheric photosynthesis are poorly understood. Utilising a 20‐yr‐long experiment, we quantified the effects of long‐term water level drawdown (WLD) on links between bryospheric photosynthesis, microbial community composition, decomposition, and environmental variables.

Comparative analysis of bones, mites, soil chemistry, nematodes and soil micro-Eukaryotes from a suspected homicide to estimate the post-mortem interval [PDF]

, 2018
Criminal investigations of suspected murder cases require estimating the post-mortem interval (PMI, or time after death) which is challenging for longer periods. Here we present the case of human remains found in a Swiss forest.
