The biomass distribution on Earth [PDF]

, 2018
A census of the biomass on Earth is key for understanding the structure and dynamics of the biosphere. However, a global, quantitative view of how the biomass of different taxa compare with one another is still lacking.

Ancient eukaryotic origin and evolutionary plasticity of nuclear lamina [PDF]

, 2016
The emergence of the nucleus was a major event of eukaryogenesis. How the nuclear envelope (NE) arose and acquired functions governing chromatin organization and epigenetic control has direct bearing on origins of developmental/stage-specific expression ...

Functional Traits and Spatio-Temporal Structure of a Major Group of Soil Protists (Rhizaria: Cercozoa) in a Temperate Grassland

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Soil protists are increasingly appreciated as essential components of soil foodwebs; however, there is a dearth of information on the factors structuring their communities. Here we investigate the importance of different biotic and abiotic factors as key

Radiolaria divided into Polycystina and Spasmaria in combined 18S and 28S rDNA phylogeny.

PLoS ONE, 2011
Radiolarians are marine planktonic protists that belong to the eukaryote supergroup Rhizaria together with Foraminifera and Cercozoa. Radiolaria has traditionally been divided into four main groups based on morphological characters; i.e.

Soil microorganisms behave like macroscopic organisms: patterns in the global distribution of soil euglyphid testate amoeba [PDF]

Aim: Patterns of α- and β-diversity of soil protist communities and the factors that shape them remain largely unknown. We undertook a world-wide survey of forest litter to investigate the patterns of diversity in a group of testate amoebae. We aimed to
