metaPR2 : A database of eukaryotic 18S rRNA metabarcodes with an emphasis on protists
bioRxiv, 2022 In recent years, metabarcoding has become the method of choice for investigating the composition and assembly of microbial eukaryotic communities, and an increasing number of environmental datasets are being published. Although unprocessed sequence files

Animals and Fungi are Each Other's Closest Relatives: Congruent Evidence from Multiple Proteins [PDF]
, 1993 Phylogenetic relationships among plants, animals, and fungi were examined by using sequences from 25 proteins. Four insertions/deletions were found that are shared by two of the three taxonomic groups in question, and all four are uniquely shared by ...

How to Track Protists in Three Dimensions [PDF]
, 2009 We present an apparatus optimized for tracking swimming microorganisms in the size range 10-1000 microns, in three dimensions (3D), far from surfaces, and with negligible background convective fluid motion.

Omnivory by the Small Cosmopolitan Hydromedusa Aglaura Hemistoma [PDF]
, 2005 We investigated the feeding of the small hydromedusa, Aglaura hemistoma (bell diameter \u3c 4 mm), to determine if it occupies a trophic position similar to that of large medusae.

Septins From Protists to People
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 Septin GTPases form nonpolar heteropolymers that play important roles in cytokinesis and other cellular processes. The ability to form heteropolymers appears to be critical to many septin functions and to have been a major driver of the high conservation

Discrimination, Crypticity, and Incipient Taxa in Entamoeba [PDF]
, 2012 Persistent difficulties in resolving clear lineages in diverging populations of prokaryotes or unicellular eukaryotes (protistan polyphyletic groups) are challenging the classical species concept.

Plant associated protists—Untapped promising candidates for agrifood tools
Environmental Microbiology, 2022 The importance of host‐associated microorganisms and their biotic interactions for plant health and performance has been increasingly acknowledged. Protists, main predators and regulators of bacteria and fungi, are abundant and ubiquitous eukaryotes in ...
