Salinity tolerance in resting cysts of colpodid ciliates: Comparative transcriptomics analysis and chemical analysis of cyst walls to investigate their tolerance capability [PDF]
Current Research in Microbial SciencesThe formation of resting cysts is a strategy for survival in unfavorable environments by single cell organisms such as protists. Here, we show that Colpoda resting cysts have high salinity tolerance and investigate the changes in gene expression that ...

ATP accumulation in early resting cyst formation towards cryptobiosis in Colpoda cucullus [PDF]
Acta Protozoologica, 2023 Resting cyst formation is a crucial process of cryptobiosis in protists. In colpodid ciliates, cyst formation is accompanied by large-scale morphological changes such as changes of cell shape ...

The resting cyst of dinoflagellate Scrippsiella acuminata host bacterial microbiomes with more diverse trophic strategies under conditions typically observed in marine sediments [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyVariation in the condition of marine sediments provides selective preservation milieus, which act as a key determinant for the abundance and distribution of dinoflagellate resting cysts in natural sediments.

Resting Cyst Distribution and Molecular Identification of the Harmful Dinoflagellate Margalefidinium polykrikoides (Gymnodiniales, Dinophyceae) in Lampung Bay, Sumatra, Indonesia [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 Margalefidinium polykrikoides, an unarmored dinoflagellate, was suspected to be the causative agent of the harmful algal blooms – associated with massive fish mortalities – that have occurred continually in Lampung Bay, Indonesia, since the first bloom ...
