Speciation of termite gut protists: the role of bacterial symbionts [PDF]
At least 12 termite gut protists have been named because of their bacterial symbionts. Dozens more species are diagnosed by epi- and endosymbionts and more still have regular bacterial associations referred to in their species description.

Dispersal strategies of the ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila were investigated using ‘two‐dimensional’ artificial landscapes, allowing for camera tracking of individual cell trajectories during all steps of the dispersal process. Strains showed distinct strategies at emigration, either increasing or decreasing movement traits (swimming speed and ...

Evolution: functional evolution of nuclear structure. [PDF]
The evolution of the nucleus, the defining feature of eukaryotic cells, was long shrouded in speculation and mystery. There is now strong evidence that nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) and nuclear membranes coevolved with the endomembrane system, and that ...

Terrestrial LiDAR and hydrology calibration were used to derive each tree's stemflow drainage area, normalising rainfall‐stemflow relations by contributing surface. The results show that Fagus grandifolia (beech) maintains a stronger, steeper hydrological response to rainfall (exhibited by a higher normalised yield) than Acer saccharum (maple) and ...

Comparative single-cell genomics of two uncultivated Naegleria species harboring Legionella cobionts
Amoeboflagellates of the genus Naegleria are free-living protists ubiquitously found in soil and freshwater habitats worldwide. They include the “brain-eating amoeba” Naegleria fowleri, an opportunistic pathogen that causes primary amoebic ...

Biofilm Analysis by Confocal Microscopy—Basics and Practical Aspects
Development and detachment of an interfacial microbial community. The resulting biofilms and bio‐aggregates are three‐dimensional communities susceptible to examination by confocal laser scanning microscopy. ABSTRACT This review is intended as a guideline for beginners in confocal laser scanning microscopy.

These findings highlight the need for conservation strategies that integrate both field‐scale and landscape‐scale planning. The promotion of diverse land use types might offer a practical pathway to maximize the effectiveness of soil biodiversity conservation within an intensively managed agricultural matrix.

We evaluated whether predators ‘kill the winner’ wherein protists and phages preferentially impact the most abundant members of bacterial assemblages over an austral summer with weekly dilution experiments. Seawater from 10 m was divided into two serial dilutions with either 0.2 μm (to evaluate protist grazing) or 30 kDa (to evaluate protist grazing ...
