A New Protocruzia Species (Ciliophora: Protocruziida) Isolated From the Mariana Trench Area
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 A new species of Protocruzia, isolated from the deep-sea Pacific Ocean (>3,000-m depth) in the vicinity of the Mariana Trench, is described based on morphological and molecular data. The systematic status of the ciliate genus Protocruzia has long been

Transformation with Artificial Chromosomes in Oxytricha trifallax and Their Applications
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2019 Oxytricha trifallax, like other ciliates, has separate germline and somatic nuclei. The diploid germline genome in the micronucleus is composed of long conventional chromosomes.

Genome plasticity in Paramecium bursaria revealed by population genomics
BMC Biology, 2020 Background Ciliates are an ancient and diverse eukaryotic group found in various environments. A unique feature of ciliates is their nuclear dimorphism, by which two types of nuclei, the diploid germline micronucleus (MIC) and polyploidy somatic ...
