Effects of Glyphosate on the Planktonic Microbiota: An Experimental Approach
Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Glyphosate is one of the most widely used herbicides in the world, including in Brazil, and its dispersion through habitats and surface waters can impact entire aquatic ecosystems. However, experimental studies evaluating the effects of pesticides on whole planktonic communities, considering attributes such as richness, density and composition—

The multifunctional autophagy pathway in the human malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum. [PDF]
, 2013 Autophagy is a catabolic pathway typically induced by nutrient starvation to recycle amino acids, but can also function in removing damaged organelles. In addition, this pathway plays a key role in eukaryotic development. To date, not much is known about

Pervasive, Genome-Wide Transcription in the Organelle Genomes of Diverse Plastid-Bearing Protists
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2017 Organelle genomes are among the most sequenced kinds of chromosome. This is largely because they are small and widely used in molecular studies, but also because next-generation sequencing technologies made sequencing easier, faster, and cheaper. However,

Protistan Predators Outshine Fungi in Forest Soil Activity. [PDF]
J Eukaryot MicrobiolABSTRACT Despite extensive research on fungal communities in forest soils, our understanding of the whole eukaryotic diversity and distribution remains limited. Moreover, traditional amplicon sequencing methods often introduce severe PCR and primer biases, further hindering accurate assessment of the microbial community composition in forest soils.

Lichen bleaching as a response to long‐term experimental warming in the High Arctic
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Lichens are an important component of Arctic ecosystems. Studies have indicated a decline in the abundance of Arctic lichens during recent decades, which is often attributed to competitive pressure from vascular plants.

Modes and mechanisms for the inheritance of mitochondria and plastids in pathogenic protists.
PLoS PathogensPathogenic protists are responsible for many diseases that significantly impact human and animal health across the globe. Almost all protists possess mitochondria or mitochondrion-related organelles, and many contain plastids.
