Motile Cilia: Innovation and Insight From Ciliate Model Organisms
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.

Oligotrich ciliates play a key role in linking microbial food webs to the traditional grazing food chain. Hence, the numerical (growth) and functional (grazing) responses of oligotrich ciliates are very important issues in studies of marine ecosystems ...

Ruminal ciliates as modulators of the rumen microbiome [PDF]
Ruminal ciliates are a fundamental constituent within the rumen microbiome of ruminant animals. The complex interactions between ruminal ciliates and other microbial guilds within the rumen ecosystems are of paramount importance for facilitating the ...

Taxonomical study of ciliates species (Order: Holotricha) in Zayandeh Rud River and the reservoirreservoir [PDF]
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.

Functional diversity of aquatic ciliates.
This paper first reviews the concept of functional diversity in general terms and then applies it to free-living aquatic ciliates. Ciliates are extremely versatile organisms and display an enormous functional diversity as key elements of pelagic food ...

Small RNA-mediated genome rearrangement pathways in ciliates. [PDF]
Most eukaryotes employ a combination of transcriptional and post-transcriptional silencing mechanisms to suppress transposons, yet ciliates employ a more extreme approach.
