Phylogenomics supports the monophyly of the Cercozoa

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2019
The phylum Cercozoa consists of a diverse assemblage of amoeboid and flagellated protists that forms a major component of the supergroup, Rhizaria. However, despite its size and ubiquity, the phylogeny of the Cercozoa remains unclear as morphological variability between cercozoan species and ambiguity in molecular analyses, including phylogenomic ...

Polyubiquitin Insertions and the Phylogeny of Cercozoa and Rhizaria

Protist, 2005
A single or double amino acid insertion at the monomer-monomer junction of the universal eukaryotic protein polyubiquitin is unique to Cercozoa and Foraminifera, closely related 'core' phyla in the protozoan infrakingdom Rhizaria. We screened 11 other candidate rhizarians for this insertion: Radiozoa (polycystine and acantharean radiolaria), a ...

Phylogeny and Classification of Phylum Cercozoa (Protozoa)

Protist, 2003
The protozoan phylum Cercozoa embraces numerous ancestrally biciliate zooflagellates, euglyphid and other filose testate amoebae, chlorarachnean algae, phytomyxean plant parasites (e.g. Plasmodiophora, Phagomyxa), the animal-parasitic Ascetosporea, and Gromia.

A Novel Polyubiquitin Structure in Cercozoa and Foraminifera: Evidence for a New Eukaryotic Supergroup [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Biology and Evolution, 2003
Ubiquitin is a 76 amino acid protein with a remarkable degree of evolutionary conservation. Ubiquitin plays an essential role in a large number of eukaryotic cellular processes by targeting proteins for proteasome-mediated degradation. Most ubiquitin genes are found as head-to-tail polymers whose products are posttranslationally processed to ubiquitin ...

Ebriid Phylogeny and the Expansion of the Cercozoa

Protist, 2006
Ebria tripartita is a phagotrophic flagellate present in marine coastal plankton communities worldwide. This is one of two (possibly four) described extant species in the Ebridea, an enigmatic group of eukaryotes with an unclear phylogenetic position.

Distinct communities of Cercozoa at different soil depths in a temperate agricultural field

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2019
Protists are the most important predators of soil microbes like bacteria and fungi and are highly diverse in terrestrial ecosystems. However, the structure of protistan communities throughout the soil profile is still poorly explored. Here, we used Illumina sequencing to track differences in the relative abundance and diversity of Cercozoa, a major ...

Local diversity of heathland Cercozoa explored by in-depth sequencing [PDF]

open access: yesISME Journal, 2016
AbstractCercozoa are abundant free-living soil protozoa and quantitatively important in soil food webs; yet, targeted high-throughput sequencing (HTS) has not yet been applied to this group. Here we describe the development of a targeted assay to explore Cercozoa using HTS, and we apply this assay to measure Cercozoan community response to drought in a
