Bacterial and archaeal symbioses with protists
Current Biology, 2021 Most of the genetic, cellular, and biochemical diversity of life rests within single-celled organisms - the prokaryotes (bacteria and archaea) and microbial eukaryotes (protists).

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020 The European Arctic is rapidly changing where increasing water temperatures and rapid loss of sea ice will likely influence the structure and functioning of the entire ecosystem.

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.

pr2-primers: an 18S rRNA primer database for protists
bioRxiv, 2021 Metabarcoding of microbial eukaryotes (collectively known as protists) has developed tremendously in the last decade, almost uniquely relying on the 18S rRNA gene.

Microplastics and phagotrophic soil protists: evidence of ingestion
Soil Organisms, 2021 Microplastics (MPs) can now be found in all the Earth’s biomes, thereby representing a global change phenomenon with largely unknown consequences for biodiversity and ecosystem functioning.

ISME Communications, 2022 Community dynamics are central in microbial ecology, yet we lack studies comparing diversity patterns among marine protists and prokaryotes over depth and multiple years.

Trade-Offs between Competitive Ability and Resistance to Top-Down Control in Marine Microbes
mSystems, 2023 Trade-offs between competitive ability and resistance to top-down control manifest the “kill-the-winner” hypothesis that explains how mortality caused by protists and viruses can promote bacterial diversity.

The global-scale distributions of soil protists and their contributions to belowground systems
Science Advances, 2020 We studied the dominant protists found in soils across the globe and their contributions to belowground food webs. Protists are ubiquitous in soil, where they are key contributors to nutrient cycling and energy transfer.

Soil Organisms, 2020 Soils host most biodiversity on Earth, with a major fraction of its taxonomic diversity still to be uncovered and most of its functional knowledge to be determined. Much focus has been - and still is - on bacteria, fungi and animals. Clearly, without any

Microbiome, 2021 Background Despite their widespread distribution and ecological importance, protists remain one of the least understood components of the soil and rhizosphere microbiome.
