Testate amoebae (Amorphea, Amoebozoa, Cercozoa) as bioindicators: a scientometric review

Acta Limnologica Brasiliensia, 2022
Abstract: Aim The free-living protists testate amoebae are recognized as being bioindicators, able to reveal environmental alteration via remodifying richness, diversity and abundance of species. To assess the scientific production on the use of testate amoebae as bioindicators, a scientometric analysis was undertaken from 1960 to 2020.

From Forest Soil to the Canopy: Increased Habitat Diversity Does Not Increase Species Richness of Cercozoa and Oomycota in Tree Canopies

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Tree canopies provide habitats for diverse and until now, still poorly characterized communities of microbial eukaryotes. One of the most general patterns in community ecology is the increase in species richness with increasing habitat diversity.

Distinct prokaryotic and eukaryotic communities and networks in two agricultural fields of central Japan with different histories of maize–cabbage rotation

Scientific Reports, 2023
Crop rotation is an important agricultural practice for homeostatic crop cultivation. Here, we applied high-throughput sequencing of ribosomal RNA gene amplicons to investigate soil biota in two fields of central Japan with different histories of maize ...

Haplosporidium littoralis sp. nov.: a crustacean pathogen within the Haplosporida (Cercozoa, Ascetosporea) [PDF]

Diseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2013
Previously, we described the pathology and ultrastructure of an apparently asporous haplosporidian-like parasite infecting the common shore crab Carcinus maenas from the European shoreline. In the current study, extraction of genomic DNA from the haemolymph, gill or hepatopancreas of infected C.

Variability and Community Composition of Marine Unicellular Eukaryote Assemblages in a Eutrophic Mediterranean Urban Coastal Area with Marked Plankton Blooms and Red Tides

Diversity, 2020
The Thessaloniki Bay is a eutrophic coastal area which has been characterized in recent years by frequent and intense phytoplankton blooms and red tides. The aim of the study was to investigate the underexplored diversity of marine unicellular eukaryotes

Variations of rhizospheric soil microbial communities in response to continuous Andrographis paniculata cropping practices

Botanical Studies, 2020
Background Changes of soil microbial communities are one of the main factors of continuous cropping problem. Andrographis paniculata has been reported to have replant problem in cultivation.

Cercozoan diversity of spring barley grown in the field is strongly plant compartment specific

Frontiers in Microbiomes
Protists are an important part of the plant holobiome and influence plant growth and pathogenic pressure as consumers. Hordeum vulgare is one of the most economically important crops worldwide, and its yield depends on optimal environmental plant-growth ...

Biogeography of Micro-Eukaryotic Communities in Sediment of Thermokarst Lakes Are Jointly Controlled by Spatial, Climatic, and Physicochemical Factors Across the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Thermokarst lakes are formed following ice-rich permafrost thaw and widely distribute in the cold regions with high latitude and elevation. However, the micro-eukaryotic communities (MECs) in thermokarst lakes are not well studied.

Direct and indirect effects of fenoxycarb on freshwater systems dominated by Neocaridina palmata (Decapoda: Atyidae) and macrophyte Ceratophyllum demersum

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
Few studies have been conducted with regard to the effects of insecticides on population dynamics of shrimps and associated groups such as macrophytes, phytoplankton, microorganisms etc. In the present study, effects of a single application of fenoxycarb
