Cell size is a key ecological trait associated with biogeographic patterns of microbial eukaryotes in coastal waters

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Body size is an important ecological trait, but it has been poorly explored in microbial communities. Here, we examined the effect of cell size on coastal eukaryotic communities across a size continuum of 0.2–3 (pico-), 3–20 (nano-), and 20–200 μm (micro-

Diel transcriptional response of a California Current plankton microbiome to light, low iron, and enduring viral infection. [PDF]

, 2019
Phytoplankton and associated microbial communities provide organic carbon to oceanic food webs and drive ecosystem dynamics. However, capturing those dynamics is challenging. Here, an in situ, semi-Lagrangian, robotic sampler profiled pelagic microbes at

Expansion of Thaumarchaeota habitat range is correlated with horizontal transfer of ATPase operons. [PDF]

, 2019
Thaumarchaeota are responsible for a significant fraction of ammonia oxidation in the oceans and in soils that range from alkaline to acidic. However, the adaptive mechanisms underpinning their habitat expansion remain poorly understood.

Phylogeny of Prokaryotes and Chloroplasts Revealed by a Simple Composition Approach on All Protein Sequences from Complete Genomes Without Sequence Alignment [PDF]

, 2005
The complete genomes of living organisms have provided much information on their phylogenetic relationships. Similarly, the complete genomes of chloroplasts have helped to resolve the evolution of this organelle in photosynthetic eukaryotes.

Diversity and dynamics of active microbial eukaryotes in the anoxic zone of a freshwater meromictic lake (Pavin, France)

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Microbial eukaryotes play a crucial role in ecosystem functioning and oxygen is considered to be one of the strongest barriers against their local dispersal.

Microbiomes of Healthy and Bleached Corals During a 2016 Thermal Bleaching Event in the Andaman Sea of Thailand

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
As seawater temperature rises, repeated thermal bleaching events have negatively affected the reefs of the Andaman Sea for over decades. Studies on the coral-associated microbial diversity of prokaryotes and microbial eukaryotes (microbiome) in healthy ...

Tubular microfossils from ∼2.8 to 2.7Ga-old lacustrine deposits of South Africa: A sign for early origin of eukaryotes? [PDF]

, 2016
Unequivocal evidence for Archean eukaryotic life has been long sought for and is a matter of lively debate. In the absence of unambiguous fossils this debate has focused on biogeochemical signatures and molecular phylogenies.

Microbial Eukaryote Diversity and Activity in the Water Column of the South China Sea Based on DNA and RNA High Throughput Sequencing

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
To study the diversity and metabolic activity of microbial eukaryotes in the water column of the South China Sea, genomic DNA and RNA were co-extracted from samples collected down to bathyal depth at two sites.
