Dominance of Ciliophora and Chlorophyta Among Phyllosphere Protists of Solanaceous Plants

Phytobiomes Journal, 2023
Phyllosphere microbiota play an important role in shaping plant health and function but most research has focused only on bacterial and fungal communities. As a result, little is known about the composition of diverse microeukaryotes in the phyllosphere,

Cyanobacterial endobionts within a major marine, planktonic, calcifier (Globigerina bulloides, Foraminifera) revealed by 16S rRNA metabarcoding [PDF]

, 2017
We investigated the possibility of bacterial symbiosis in Globigerina bulloides, a palaeoceanographically important, planktonic foraminifer. This marine protist is commonly used in micropalaeontological investigations of climatically sensitive subpolar ...

Cascading effects in freshwater microbial food webs by predatory Cercozoa, Katablepharidacea and ciliates feeding on aplastidic bacterivorous cryptophytes

FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2020
Heterotrophic nanoflagellates (HNF) are considered as major planktonic bacterivores, however, larger HNF taxa can also be important predators of eukaryotes. To examine this trophic cascading, natural protistan communities from a freshwater reservoir were

Phylum-specific environmental DNA analysis reveals remarkably high global biodiversity of Cercozoa (Protozoa) [PDF]

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2004
This study presents the first 18S rRNA multi-library environmental PCR survey of a single protozoan phylum, Cercozoa Cavalier-Smith 1998, from a range of different habitats. Phylogenetic analysis reveals at least nine novel clades within the phylum, several possibly at the level of order or above.

Genetic Diversity, Community Assembly, and Shaping Factors of Benthic Microbial Eukaryotes in Dongshan Bay, Southeast China

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Microbial eukaryotes are pivotal components of marine ecosystems. However, compared with the pelagic environments, the diversity distribution and the driving mechanisms of microbial eukaryotes in the marine sediments have rarely been explored.

Metabarcoding and biomass quantification reveal seasonal parasite associations in copepods

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Parasites are important members of ecosystems, and recent metabarcoding efforts have revealed an abundance of microbial eukaryotic parasites in copepods. However, a putative linkage to host community biomass and composition has not been addressed. We performed zooplankton tows monthly for 2 yr at five stations in the Oslofjord, Norway.

Biogeographical Distribution and Community Assembly of Active Protistan Assemblages along an Estuary to a Basin Transect of the Northern South China Sea

Microorganisms, 2021
Marine protists are essential for globally critical biological processes, including the biogeochemical cycles of matter and energy. However, compared with their prokaryotic counterpart, it remains largely unclear how environmental factors determine the ...

Diversity and Evolution of Sensor Histidine Kinases in Eukaryotes [PDF]

, 2019
Histidine kinases (HKs) are primary sensor proteins that act in cell signaling pathways generically referred to as "two component systems" (TCSs). TCSs are among the most widely distributed transduction systems used by both prokaryotic and eukaryotic ...

Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Microbial Community in Kumamoto Oyster (Crassostrea sikamea) Larvae: Response to Antibiotics in Trace Concentration

Fishes, 2022
Antibiotic treatment is regarded as an emergency measure to avoid disease occurrence of aquatic animals during metamorphosis in an aquaculture system, which is very common in hatcheries of bivalve mollusc larvae.

Morphology, Ultrastructure, and Phylogeny of Two Novel Species of Ventrifissura (V. oblonga n. sp. and V. velata n. sp., Thecofilosea, Cercozoa).

Protist, 2020
Ventrifissura is a group of poorly studied heterotrophic biflagellates in the phylum Cercozoa. Despite a phylogenetic placement with only weak support and a lack of ultrastructural data, Ventrifissura was assigned to Thecofilosea. In the presented study,
