Life cycle strategies in free-living unicellular eukaryotes: Diversity, evolution, and current molecular tools to unravel the private life of microorganisms. [PDF]

J Eukaryot Microbiol
Abstract An astonishing range of morphologies and life strategies has arisen across the vast diversity of protists, allowing them to thrive in most environments. In model protists, like Tetrahymena, Dictyostelium, or Trypanosoma, life cycles involving multiple life stages with different morphologies have been well characterized.

Morphological stasis in the first myxomycete from the Mesozoic, and the likely role of cryptobiosis. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2019
Myxomycetes constitute a group within the Amoebozoa well known for their motile plasmodia and morphologically complex fruiting bodies. One obstacle hindering studies of myxomycete evolution is that their fossils are exceedingly rare, so evolutionary ...

The Ribosomal Operon Database: A Full-Length rDNA Operon Database Derived From Genome Assemblies. [PDF]

Mol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT Current rDNA reference sequence databases are tailored towards shorter DNA markers, such as parts of the 16/18S marker or the internally transcribed spacer (ITS) region. However, due to advances in long‐read DNA sequencing technologies, longer stretches of the rDNA operon are increasingly used in environmental sequencing studies to increase ...

Characterization of Entamoeba fatty acid elongases; validation as targets and provision of promising leads for new drugs against amebiasis. [PDF]

PLoS Pathog
Entamoeba histolytica is a protozoan parasite belonging to the phylum Amoebozoa that causes amebiasis, a global public health problem. E. histolytica alternates its form between a proliferative trophozoite and a dormant cyst. Trophozoite proliferation is

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

Biological 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.

Revisions to the Classification, Nomenclature, and Diversity of Eukaryotes. [PDF]

J Eukaryot Microbiol, 2019
Abstract This revision of the classification of eukaryotes follows that of Adl et al., 2012 [J. Euk. Microbiol. 59(5)] and retains an emphasis on protists. Changes since have improved the resolution of many nodes in phylogenetic analyses. For some clades even families are being clearly resolved.

The amoebae of Idionectes vortex (Cutosea, Amoebozoa): Motility, cytoskeleton architecture and extracellular scales

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 68, Issue 6, November/December 2021., 2021
Abstract The Cutosea represent a deep‐branching lineage within the phylum Amoebozoa that is still relatively poorly explored. Currently, there are four cutosean representatives known – the monotypic genera Armaparvus, Idionectes, Sapocribrum, and Squamamoeba – with marked genetic distances. Idionectes vortex is the deepest‐branching species and differs
