Characterization of Simple Sequence Repeats (SSRs) in Ciliated Protists Inferred by Comparative Genomics

Microorganisms, 2020
Simple sequence repeats (SSRs) are prevalent in the genomes of all organisms. They are widely used as genetic markers, and are insertion/deletion mutation hotspots, which directly influence genome evolution.

A new marine ciliate, Apofrontonia jejuensis n. sp. (Protozoa, Ciliophora, Oligohymenophorea) from Jeju Island, South Korea, and an improved diagnosis of the genus Apofrontonia

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
The genus Apofrontonia comprises vicarious species that until now have only been described in a few locations worldwide. It was assigned to the family Frontoniidae based on two diagnostic features, i.e., the closely arranged kinetal rows in the peniculi ...

Alpha-Tubulin and Small Subunit rRNA Phylogenies of Peritrichs Are Congruent and Do Not Support the Clustering of Mobilids and Sessilids (Ciliophora, Oligohymenophorea) [PDF]

, 2010
Peritrich ciliates have been traditionally subdivided into two orders, Sessilida and Mobilida within the subclass Peritrichia. However, all the existing small subunit (SSU) rRNA phylogenetic trees showed that the sessilids and mobilids did not branch ...

Unravelling the importance of the eukaryotic and bacterial communities and their relationship with Legionella spp. ecology in cooling towers: a complex network

Microbiome, 2020
Background Cooling towers are a major source of large community-associated outbreaks of Legionnaires’ disease, a severe pneumonia. This disease is contracted when inhaling aerosols that are contaminated with bacteria from the genus Legionella, most ...

Diversity of ciliates in small rivers in vicinity of Khabarovsk and in southern Sakhalin Island

Известия ТИНРО, 2016
Data on species composition of ciliates in the small rivers at Khabarovsk and in southern Sakhalin Island are presented. Modified method of sampling was applied with using of samplers and “glass fouling” on the shallows of the rivers.
