Coxiella-like Endosymbionts

2012
In the past two decades, many Coxiella-like bacteria have been found in hard ticks and soft ticks as well as in vertebrate hosts. It is interesting to note that many ticks harbor Coxiella-like bacteria with high prevalence. Coxiella-like bacteria and virulent Coxiella burnetii have high homology to each other; they form a monophyletic clade based on ...

Endosymbionts and mitochondrial origins

Journal of Molecular Evolution, 1977
The possibility is put forth that the mitochondrion did not originate from an endosymbiosis, 1-2 billion years ago, involving an aerobic bacterium. Rather, it arose by endosymbiosis in a much early, anaerobic period, and was initially a photosynthetic organelle, analogous to the modern chloroplast.

Identification of Pelomyxa palustris Endosymbionts

Protist, 2017
Pelomyxa palustris is a giant anaerobic/microaerobic amoeba, characterized by a number of exceptional cytological and physiological features, among them the presumed absence of energy producing organelles and the presence of endosymbiotic bacteria. These endosymbionts have been previously distinguished as: a large rectangular-shaped Gram-variable rod ...

WOLBACHIA ENDOSYMBIONTS IN FLEAS (SIPHONAPTERA)

Journal of Parasitology, 2003
Intracellular endosymbionts, Wolbachia spp., have been reported in many different orders of insects and in nematodes but not previously in fleas. This is the first conclusive report of Wolbachia spp. within members of the Siphonaptera. Using nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) targeting of the 16S ribosomal RNA gene, we screened for Wolbachia spp ...

The Endosymbionts of Paramecium

CRC Critical Reviews in Microbiology, 1974
AbstractProtozoan cells harbor many different types of endosymbionts. They can be viruses, bacteria, algae, fungi, or even defy classification in relation to free-living organisms. A general description of the types is available in Kirby1 and some are shown in Table 1.

Fungal Endosymbionts of Seaweeds

2011
Seaweeds are being studied for their role in supporting coastal marine life and nutrient cycling and for their bioactive metabolites. For a more complete understanding of seaweed communities, it is essential to obtain information about their interactions with various other components of their ecosystem.

Bacterial Endosymbionts of Acanthamoeba sp.

The Journal of Parasitology, 1985
Gimenez staining of presumably axenic Acanthamoeba sp., strain HN-3, showed rod-shaped cytoplasmic inclusions. Electron microscopy of thin sections of the amebae showed these to be bacilli which measured 1.3 to 3.3 microns by 0.22 to 0.33 micron. Their cell envelopes were those typical of gram-negative bacteria, surrounded by an electron-translucent ...

Endosymbionts ofSiboglinum fiordicumand the Phylogeny of Bacterial Endosymbionts in Siboglinidae (Annelida)

The Biological Bulletin, 2008
Siboglinid worms are a group of gutless marine annelids that are nutritionally dependent upon endosymbiotic bacteria. Four major groups of siboglinids are known - vestimentiferans, moniliferans, Osedax spp. and frenulates. Although endosymbionts of vestimentiferans and Osedax spp.

1.2.1.3 Endosymbionts

1997
Publisher Summary The first information on the symbionts of Coccidae is obtained as a by-product of an anatomical study of Coccus hesperidum L., it is reported the presence of bodies, around 4μm long and probably parasitic, in the haemolymph of this common soft scale.

The Endosymbiont Hypothesis Revisited

1992
Publisher Summary This chapter highlights endosymbiont hypothesis. All contemporary genomes (including those of plastids and mitochondria) ultimately derive from a single genome—the genome of a single, presumably cellular, entity which was the ancestor of all surviving forms of live.
