Molecular Phylogenetics of Subclass Peritrichia (Ciliophora: Oligohymenophorea) Based on Expanded Analyses of 18S rRNA Sequences

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, 2007
ABSTRACT. Phylogenetic relationships among peritrich ciliates remain unclear in spite of recent progress. To expand the analyses performed in previous studies, and to statistically test hypotheses of monophyly, we analyzed a broad sample of 18s rRNA sequences (including 15 peritrich genera), applying a conservative alignment strategy and several ...

Intrageneric evolutionary timing and hidden genetic diversity of Paramecium lineages (Ciliophora: Oligohymenophorea)

Systematics and Biodiversity, 2020
Members of the genus Paramecium (Ciliophora, Oligohymenophorea) are widespread ciliates able to colonize many fresh, brackish and marine water environments around the globe.

Anaerocyclidiidae fam. nov. (Oligohymenophorea, Scuticociliatia): A newly recognized major lineage of anaerobic ciliates hosting prokaryotic symbionts

European Journal of Protistology, 2023
The research on anaerobic ciliates, to date, has mainly been focused on representatives of obligately anaerobic classes such as Armophorea or Plagiopylea. In this study, we focus on the anaerobic representatives of the subclass Scuticociliatia, members of the class Oligohymenophorea, which is mainly composed of aerobic ciliates.

Multigene-based analyses on evolutionary phylogeny of two controversial ciliate orders: Pleuronematida and Loxocephalida (Protista, Ciliophora, Oligohymenophorea)

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2013
Relationships among members of the ciliate subclass Scuticociliatia (Ciliophora, Oligohymenophorea) are largely unresolved. Phylogenetic studies of its orders Pleuronematida and Loxocephalida were initially based on small subunit ribosomal RNA gene (SSU-rDNA) analyses of a limited number of taxa.

The enigmatic genus Malacophrys Kahl, 1926 (Ciliophora: Intramacronucleata) belongs to the class Oligohymenophorea

Protist
The ciliate genus Malacophrys has been incertae sedis for more than 50 years in what is now subphylum Intramacronucleata, provisionally assigned to three different classes by various authors. Of the three species included in the genus, M. sphagni and the type species, Malacophrys rotans, have not been studied by modern methods and M.

Apofrontonia dohrni sp. n. and the phylogenetic relationships within Peniculia (Protista, Ciliophora, Oligohymenophorea)

Zoologica Scripta, 2006
Apofrontonia dohrni, a new peniculine ciliate, was discovered in a slightly brackish water sample from Mediterranean coastline puddle in Naples, Italy. Its morphology was studied in vivo, in silver‐ and Feulgen‐stained preparations, as well as at the scanning electron microscope; 18S rRNA gene sequence was also determined. The species is characterized

Morphology, morphogenesis and phylogeny of Anteglaucoma orientalis n. sp. (Ciliophora, Oligohymenophorea), a freshwater hymenostomatid from northeastern China

European Journal of Protistology, 2021
A new hymenostomatid ciliate, Anteglaucoma orientalis n. sp., isolated from a freshwater pond in Harbin, northeastern China, was investigated using live observation and silver staining methods. Anteglaucoma orientalis is characterized as follows: size in vivo about 50-60 × 30-35 μm; oval body shape; buccal area occupies about 25% of body length; 28-36 ...

Morphology and infraciliature of a new marine ciliate, Cinetochilum ovale n. sp. (Ciliophora: Oligohymenophorea)

Zootaxa, 2008
The morphology and infraciliature of a new oligohymenophorean ciliate, Cinetochilum ovale n. sp., isolated from the littoral sediment of the Bohai Sea, northern China, were investigated using live observations and silver impregnations. This new species as follows: size about 20–30 × 15–25 µm in vivo, body oval in outline, with 12–13 bipolar somatic ...

Variation in ribosomal and mitochondrial DNA sequences demonstrates the existence of intraspecific groups in Paramecium multimicronucleatum (Ciliophora, Oligohymenophorea)

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2012
This is the first phylogenetic study of the intraspecific variability within Paramecium multimicronucleatum with the application of two-loci analysis (ITS1-5.8S-ITS2-5'LSU rDNA and COI mtDNA) carried out on numerous strains originated from different continents.
