Survival Rate and Growth of Fighting Fish Larvae (Betta splendens Regan) Fed on Various Live Foods
Jurnal Akuakultur Indonesia, 2007 Larval of fighting fish (Betta splendens Regan) requires precise live foods for its growth and survival. In this experiment, fish larvae were fed on either Paramecium + Artemia, Paramecium + Artemia + Tubifex, Paramecium + Moina, or Paramecium + Moina +

Density-and trait-mediated effects of a parasite and a predator in a tri-trophic food web [PDF]
, 2014 1. Despite growing interest in ecological consequences of parasitism in food webs, relatively little is known about effects of parasites on long-term population dynamics of non-host species or about whether such effects are density- or trait- mediated ...

RNA interference reveals the escape response mechanism of Paramecium to mechanical stimulation
Biophysics and Physicobiology, 2023 In Paramecium, a mechanical stimulus applied to the posterior portion of the cell causes a transient increase in membrane permeability to potassium ions, transiently rendering the membrane in a hyperpolarized state.

Using Paramecium as a Model for Ciliopathies [PDF]
Genes, 2021 Paramecium has served as a model organism for the studies of many aspects of genetics and cell biology: non-Mendelian inheritance, genome duplication, genome rearrangements, and exocytosis, to name a few. However, the large number and patterning of cilia that cover its surface have inspired extraordinary ultrastructural work.

Finding the ciliary beating pattern with optimal efficiency [PDF]
Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 108: 15727-15732 (2011), 2011 We introduce a measure for energetic efficiency of biological cilia acting individually or collectively and numerically determine the optimal beating patterns according to this criterion. Maximizing the efficiency of a single cilium leads to curly, often symmetric and somewhat counterintuitive patterns.
