Seasonal Variability of Photosynthetic Microbial Eukaryotes (<3 µm) in the Kara Sea Revealed by 18S rDNA Metabarcoding of Sediment Trap Fluxes [PDF]

open access: yesPlants, 2021
This survey is the first to explore the seasonal cycle of microbial eukaryote diversity (

Vertical Distribution of Microbial Eukaryotes From Surface to the Hadal Zone of the Mariana Trench [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Marine microbial eukaryotes are ubiquitous, comprised of phylogenetically diverse groups and play key roles in microbial food webs and global biogeochemical cycling. However, their vertical distribution in the deep sea has received little attention.

Microbial eukaryotes: Extending observations North [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2013
Free-living microbial eukaryotes are an enigmatic group of organisms. Many have been discovered through traditional cultivation and microscopic observation, with continued observations leading to the acknowledgment that many small eukaryotic species are potentially dispersed at a global level (Finlay, 2002).

Microbial Eukaryotes in an Arctic Under-Ice Spring Bloom North of Svalbard [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Microbial eukaryotes can play prominent roles in the Arctic marine ecosystem, but their diversity and variability is not well known in the ice-covered ecosystems.

Fungi dominate eukaryotic microbial assemblages in hot spring biofilms of East and Southeast Asia [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiome
Terrestrial hot springs are globally distributed extreme environments, and these systems have long served as natural laboratories for studying microbial life under thermal stress.

Gene Transfer Agents in Bacterial Endosymbionts of Microbial Eukaryotes. [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Biol Evol, 2022
Abstract Gene transfer agents (GTAs) are virus-like structures that package and transfer prokaryotic DNA from donor to recipient prokaryotic cells. Here, we describe widespread GTA gene clusters in the highly reduced genomes of bacterial endosymbionts from microbial eukaryotes (protists).

How and why DNA barcodes underestimate the diversity of microbial eukaryotes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Because many picoplanktonic eukaryotic species cannot currently be maintained in culture, direct sequencing of PCR-amplified 18S ribosomal gene DNA fragments from filtered sea-water has been successfully used to investigate the astounding ...

Microbial hierarchical correlations and their contributions to carbon-nitrogen cycling following a reservoir cyanobacterial bloom

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2022
Unraveling how microbial co-occurrences respond to cyanobacterial blooms is central to our understanding of the stability of aquatic ecosystems. Here, we examined the effects of a Microcystis bloom on the inter-domain eukaryotic and two size-fractionated

Shift and Metabolic Potentials of Microbial Eukaryotic Communities Across the Full Depths of the Mariana Trench

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Microbial eukaryotes are widespread and play important roles in marine ecosystems. However, their ecological characteristics in the deep sea (>1,000 m), especially hadal trenches, were largely unknown. Here, we investigated the diversity and metabolic
