Endosymbiosis: The feeling is not mutual [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Theoretical Biology, 2017
Endosymbiosis is an idea that provided a remarkable amount of explanatory power about the origins of eukaryotic organelles. But it also promoted a number of assumptions that have also been influential, but are less well-examined. Here we look at two of these to see whether or not they fit current evidence.

Endosymbiosis in Blastocystis hominis

Experimental Parasitology, 1976
Abstract Examination of eight strains of axenically grown Blastocystis hominis by Nomarski interference optics revealed the presence in all strains of intracellular bacterialike spheres and rods, which were named alpha. These structures were confirmed by transmission (TEM) and freeze fracture (FEM) electron microscopy.

Digital Endosymbiosis

IEEE Security & Privacy Magazine, 2009
The science behind evolution suggests that the transition from cells without a nucleus to cells with a nucleus is perhaps the single greatest leap between there and here, and that it came about by the inclusion of some cells in some other cells. The term of art here, endosymbiosis, credits the ability to respire, move, and photosynthesize as results of

Endosymbiosis, cell evolution, and speciation

Theory in Biosciences, 2005
In 1905, the Russian biologist C. Mereschkowsky postulated that plastids (e.g., chloroplasts) are the evolutionary descendants of endosymbiotic cyanobacteria-like organisms. In 1927, I. Wallin explicitly postulated that mitochondria likewise evolved from once free-living bacteria.

Bacterial endosymbiosis in amoebae

Trends in Cell Biology, 1995
The large, free-living amoebae are inherently phagocytic. They capture, ingest and digest microbes within their phagolysosomes, including those that survive in other cells. One exception is an unidentified strain of Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacteria that spontaneously infected the D strain of Amoeba proteus and came to survive inside them.

Parasitoids, polydnaviruses and endosymbiosis

Parasitology Today, 1990
Symbiotic associations traditionally have been treated as evolutionary curios rather than as a major source of evolutionary innovation. Recent research on a wide variety of organisms is changing this view and is breaking down the barriers between the traditional categories of parasitism, commensalism and mutualism, to produce a more flexible view of ...

Reprogramming Plant Cells for Endosymbiosis

Science, 2009
The establishment of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbioses, formed by most flowering plants in association with glomeromycotan fungi, and the root-nodule (RN) symbiosis, formed by legume plants and rhizobial bacteria, requires an ongoing molecular dialogue that underpins the reprogramming of root cells for compatibility.

Endosymbiosis and its significance in dermatology

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, 2017
AbstractProposed at the beginning of the twentieth century to explain the origin of eukaryotic organelles from prokaryotes, endosymbiosis is now medically defined by various interaction patterns between microorganisms and their residing hosts, best exemplified by the bacterial endosymbiont Wolbachia identified in arthropods and filarial nematodes ...

Hereditary endosymbiosis in Paramecium bursaria

Experimental Cell Research, 1960
Abstract Methods for separating the hereditary endosymbiotic association Paramecium bursaria into its two components, paramecium and chlorella and for the independent culture of each are described. Chlorella-less paramecia can be reinfected, and combinations of algae and paramecia of various strains have been established and analyzed.
