Phytoplankton Community Dynamic: A Driver for Ciliate Trophic Strategies
Phytoplankton plays a key role as primary producers and mediating biogeochemical cycles in the water column. The understanding of the temporal dynamic of primary grazers channeling energy and carbon from primary producers is important for evaluating ...

Plankton communities include both unicellular and multicellular organisms. An important unicellular component is represented by those protists (i.e., unicellular eukaryotes) that consume bacteria, other protists, and even small animals.

Effect of large- and small- bodied zooplankton on phytoplankton in a eutrophic oxbow [PDF]
Macrozooplankton and microzooplankton effects on the phytoplankton were measured in situ in a eutrophic lake. Indigenous phytoplankton were incubated for 5 days in 301 mesocosms with either the macro- and microzooplankton (complete), microzooplankton ...

Sessile Ciliates (Ciliophora) from Extreme Habitats [PDF]
The present article addresses an overview of different types of extreme habitats in which sessile ciliates were found. Ciliates were found in different extreme habitats (marine deep waters, hypersaline, caves, and subterranean waters). Authors registered

Separate germline and somatic genomes are found in numerous lineages across the eukaryotic tree of life, often separated into distinct tissues (e.g., in plants, animals, and fungi) or distinct nuclei sharing a common cytoplasm (e.g., in ciliates and some

Diverse modes of reproduction in the marine free-living ciliate
Background Most free-living ciliates reproduce by equal fission or budding during vegetative growth. In certain ciliates, reproduction occurs inside the cyst wall, viz.

Seasonal changes in planktonic bacterivory rates under the ice-covered coastal Arctic Ocean [PDF]
Bacterivory was determined in surface waters of Franklin Bay, western Arctic, over a seasonal ice-covered period (winter-spring, 2003-2004). The objectives were to obtain information on the functioning of the microbial food web under the ice, during ...

Biological evaluation of honey
The article shows the results of the use of ciliates Tetrahymena pyriformis, for biological evaluation of honey. It is known that ciliates Tetrahymena pyriformis, similar in general characteristics of metabolism with higher animals, can serve as ...
