Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 69, Issue 5, Page 1030-1044, May 2024.Abstract Mixotrophic protists are capable of acting both as primary producers and primary consumers at the base of the aquatic food web, thus constituting key organisms in ecosystems where they are abundant. However, their identity, abundance, ecological dynamics, and biogeochemical impact in aquatic ecosystems remain understudied in comparison to ...

Marine Life Science & TechnologyAbstract Marine anoxic sediments are expansive ecosystems, effectively devoid of oxygen, where eukaryotic life is predominantly represented by protists. In this study, we surveyed a range of such habitats and uncovered novel diversity within ciliated protists from the subclass Scuticociliatia (class Oligohymenophorea).

Insights into Transgenerational Epigenetics from Studies of Ciliates [PDF]
, 2017 Epigenetics, a term with many meanings, can be broadly defined as the study of dynamic states of the genome. Ciliates, a clade of unicellular eukaryotes, can teach us about the intersection of epigenetics and evolution due to the advantages of working ...

, 2023 Abstract: Total 35 water samples were collected from Saradwadi dam, located near Sinnar, Nashik district, Maharashtra, India. Samples were collected for the period from December 2021 to April 2022. During the present investigation a free-living freshwater ciliate Paramoecium caudatum was found and identified morphologically.

Unraveling the Stratification of an Iron-Oxidizing Microbial Mat by Metatranscriptomics
, 2014 International audienceA metatranscriptomic approach was used to study community gene expression in a naturally occurring iron-rich microbial mat. Total microbial community RNA was reversely transcribed and sequenced by pyrosequencing. Characterization of

Large-scale phylogenomic analysis reveals the phylogenetic position of the problematic taxon Protocruzia and unravels the deep phylogenetic affinities of the ciliate lineages [PDF]
, 2014 The Ciliophora is one of the most studied protist lineages because of its important ecological role in the microbial loop. While there is an abundance of molecular data for many ciliate groups, it is commonly limited to the 18S ribosomal RNA locus. There

Microbial hitchhikers on intercontinental dust: high-throughput sequencing to catalogue microbes in small sand samples [PDF]
, 2018 Microbiological studies on the intercontinental transport of dust are confounded by the difficulty of obtaining sufficient material for analysis. Axenic samples of dust collected at high altitudes or historic specimens in museums are often so small and ...
