Root cap is an important determinant of rhizosphere microbiome assembly.

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 239, Issue 4, Page 1434-1448, August 2023., 2023
Plants impact the development of their rhizosphere microbial communities. It is yet unclear to what extent the root cap and specific root zones contribute to microbial community assembly. To test the roles of root caps and root hairs in the establishment

Comparative genomics of Ascetosporea gives new insight into the evolutionary basis for animal parasitism in Rhizaria

open access: yesBMC Biology
Background Ascetosporea (Endomyxa, Rhizaria) is a group of unicellular parasites infecting aquatic invertebrates. They are increasingly being recognized as widespread and important in marine environments, causing large annual losses in invertebrate ...

Vampyrella crystallifera sp. nov., an Amoeba That Dissolves Entire Algal Cells at a Remarkable Speed

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
The vampyrellid amoebae (Order Vampyrellida, Rhizaria) comprise predatory microeukaryotes that inhabit freshwater, marine, and terrestrial habitats. They are known to consume a wide array of prey, which includes microalgae, fungi, and even microscopic ...

National‐scale distribution of protists associated with sorghum leaves and roots

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 16, Issue 5, October 2024.
Protists, as integral constituents of the plant microbiome, are posited to confer substantial benefits to plant health and performance. Despite their significance, protists have received considerably less attention compared to other constituents of the ...

The Vampyrellid Amoebae (Vampyrellida, Rhizaria).

open access: yesProtist, 2021
The Vampyrellida (Endomyxa, Rhizaria) is a group of free-living, predatory amoebae, which is most closely related to the Phytomyxea (plasmodiophorids and phagomyxids).

Seasonality regulates the taxonomic and functional compositions of protists responding to climate warming in forest ecosystems

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 2, Issue 4, Page 529-540, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Introduction Protists are unicellular eukaryotes including important predators, parasites and phototrophs, and play pivotal roles in organic matter decomposition, biogeochemical nutrient cycling and various ecosystem functions. Unravelling the impact of climate warming on soil protists is paramount in predicting how these microorganisms will ...

Diversity of ‘simple’ multicellular eukaryotes: 45 independent cases and six types of multicellularity

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 6, Page 2188-2209, December 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT Multicellularity evolved multiple times in the history of life, with most reviewers agreeing that it appeared at least 20 times in eukaryotes. However, a specific list of multicellular eukaryotes with clear criteria for inclusion has not yet been published.
