Ciliados (Protozoa) de sedimentos secos de una charca temporaria de la Argentina [PDF]
, 2009 Temporary ponds represent special environments that are inhabited by organisms adapted to changing environmental conditions. Ciliates are able to survive complete loss of water in these transient habitats through cyst formation. Nevertheless, ciliates

Evaluation of Clove Extract for Drug Therapy of Ciliate Infection in Coral (Goniopora columna)
Biology, 2022 In recent years, ciliate infections have caused serious casualties to corals in the ocean. Infected corals die within a short period of time, which not only poses a threat to wild coral reefs, but also has a major impact on large scale aquaculture of ...

Motile Cilia: Innovation and Insight From Ciliate Model Organisms
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2019 Ciliates are a powerful model organism for the study of basal bodies and motile cilia. These single-celled protists contain hundreds of cilia organized in an array making them an ideal system for both light and electron microscopy studies.

High infestation and phylogenetic position of Epistylis sp. (Ciliophora, Peritrichia) on Aegla serrana Buckup & Rossi (Crustacea, Anomura) from southern Brazil [PDF]
Anais da Academia Brasileira de CiênciasHigh infestations of epibiont ciliates on vertebrates or invertebrates are normally related to aquaculture tanks or similar environments, and the importance of this relationship in natural habitats is often disregarded. Here, we describe the first record

Taxonomical study of ciliates species (Order: Holotricha) in Zayandeh Rud River and the reservoirreservoir [PDF]
بومشناسی آبزیان, 2023 Ciliates are among the largest classes of protozoans. They can be found in almost every aquatic environment. Ciliates serve as an intermediate link in the energy transfer chain from picoplankton to zooplankton.
