Complex coevolutionary history of symbiotic Bacteroidales bacteria of various protists in the gut of termites [PDF]

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2009
Background The microbial community in the gut of termites is responsible for the efficient decomposition of recalcitrant lignocellulose. Prominent features of this community are its complexity and the associations of prokaryotes with the cells of ...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa Adaptation to Lungs of Cystic Fibrosis Patients Leads to Lowered Resistance to Phage and Protist Enemies [PDF]

, 2013
Pathogenic life styles can lead to highly specialized interactions with host species, potentially resulting in fitness trade-offs in other ecological contexts.

Bhalin, an Essential Cytoskeleton-Associated Protein of Trypanosoma brucei Linking TbBILBO1 of the Flagellar Pocket Collar with the Hook Complex

Microorganisms, 2021
Background: In most trypanosomes, endo and exocytosis only occur at a unique organelle called the flagellar pocket (FP) and the flagellum exits the cell via the FP.

Environmental factors affecting akinete germination and resting cell awakening of two cyanobacteria

Applied Microscopy, 2023
Globally, cyanobacteria frequently cause blooms that outcompete other species in the waterbody, affecting the diversity, decreasing water exchange rates, and promoting eutrophication that leads to excessive algal growth.

New recorded diatoms in Holocene sediment cores from the Gonggeom-ji Wetland in Korea

Applied Microscopy, 2023
The Gonggeom-ji reservoir is an agricultural one built for rice farming during the Proto-Three Kingdoms period and was designated as Gyeongsangbuk-do monument No. 121 because of its high historical value.

New Records of the Diatoms (Bacillariophyceae) from the Coastal Lagoons in Korea

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
Lagoons are natural bodies of water that are isolated from the sea due to the development of a sand bar or spit. Each lagoon has distinct ecological characteristics, and these sites also serve as popular tourist attractions because they are common ...

Predatory protists [PDF]

Current Biology, 2020
The vast majority of eukaryotic life is made up of single cells commonly referred to as protists. In this primer, Leander provides an introduction to predatory protists - cells that eat other cells. This lifestyle, in particular the use of phagocytosis, makes endosymbiosis possible and enabled the evolution of complex cells.

New Insight Into the Mechanism of Ecological Effects of Artificial Habitats: Elucidating the Relationship Between Protists Associated With Artificial Reefs and Adjacent Seawater

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Artificial habitat deployment can restore natural habitats or supplement existing natural habitats. The effect of resource proliferation and protection is obvious.
