Salinity tolerance in resting cysts of colpodid ciliates: Comparative transcriptomics analysis and chemical analysis of cyst walls to investigate their tolerance capability [PDF]
Current Research in Microbial SciencesThe formation of resting cysts is a strategy for survival in unfavorable environments by single cell organisms such as protists. Here, we show that Colpoda resting cysts have high salinity tolerance and investigate the changes in gene expression that ...

Coupling between Ribotypic and Phenotypic Traits of Protists across Life Cycle Stages and Temperatures [PDF]
Microbiology Spectrum, 2021 Relationships between ribotypic and phenotypic traits of protists across life cycle stages remain largely unknown. Herein, we used single cells of two soil and two marine ciliate species to examine phenotypic and ribotypic traits and their relationships ...
