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-

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.

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.

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 ...

Time to regulate microbial eukaryote nomenclature [PDF]

Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2012
Nomenclature of microbial eukaryotes has been historically relegated to secondary importance. This is a legacy of the traditional classification of life into the most studied multicellular forms (plants fungi and animals). Despite the revolution in an understanding of eukaryotic diversity and relationships that has been achieved as a result of the use ...

Characterization of eukaryotic microbial diversity in hypersaline Lake Tyrrell, Australia

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2013
This study describes the community structure of the microbial eukaryotic community from hypersaline Lake Tyrrell, Australia, using near full length 18S rRNA sequences. Water samples were taken in both summer and winter over a four year period. The extent

Single cell genomics reveals plastid-lacking Picozoa are close relatives of red algae

Nature Communications, 2021
The origin of primary plastids in an ancestor of Archaeplastida gave eukaryotes photosynthetic capabilities. This study used single-cell genomics and phylogenomics to infer the evolutionary origin of the plastid-lacking phylum Picozoa, a group of marine ...

The Rise of Epigenetics in Microbial Eukaryotes [PDF]

Fungal Genomics & Biology, 2014
The 12th European Conference on Fungal Genetics (ECFG) was held in Seville, Spain on March 23-27, 2014. The meeting covered topics as diverse as fungal genetics, genomics, molecular cell biology, evolution, pathogenesis, and biotechnology. Despite such diversity, as the meeting progressed, it became evident that epigenetics are now an important part of

The Thores Lake proglacial system: remnant stability in the rapidly changing Canadian High Arctic

Arctic Science, 2023
We describe limnological data sets from Thores Lake, a large ice-contact proglacial lake in northern Ellesmere Island, Nunavut (82.65°N), including longitudinal and cross transects (vertical resolution 0.03 m, horizontal resolution 100–200 m).
