Origins of a cyanobacterial 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase in plastid-lacking eukaryotes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
BackgroundPlastids have inherited their own genomes from a single cyanobacterial ancestor, but the majority of cyanobacterial genes, once retained in the ancestral plastid genome, have been lost or transferred into the eukaryotic host nuclear genome via ...

The twilight of Heliozoa and rise of Rhizaria, an emerging supergroup of amoeboid eukaryotes [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2004
Recent molecular phylogenetic studies revealed the extraordinary diversity of single-celled eukaryotes. However, the proper assessment of this diversity and accurate reconstruction of the eukaryote phylogeny are still impeded by the lack of molecular data for some major groups of easily identifiable and cultivable protists.

In situ imaging reveals the biomass of giant protists in the global ocean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
International audiencePlanktonic organisms play crucial roles in oceanic food webs and global biogeochemical cycles1, 2. Most of our knowledge about the ecological impact of large zooplankton stems from research on abundant and robust crustaceans, and in

Transition from stromatolite to thrombolite fabric: potential role for reticulopodial protists in lake microbialites of a Proterozoic ecosystem analog

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Prior observations suggest that foraminiferan protists use their reticulopodia (anastomosing pseudopodia) to alter sediment fabric by disrupting laminations of subtidal marine stromatolites, erasing the layered structures in an experimental setting ...

Psammophaga secriensia sp. nov., a New Monothalamid Foraminifera (Protista, Rhizaria) from the Romanian Black Sea Shelf

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Based on molecular and morphological characters, we describe a new species of monothalamous foraminifera, Psammophaga secriensia sp. nov., that was sampled from two coastal locations (48 m and 53 m depth) on the Romanian Black Sea continental shelf ...

Draft Genome Resource for the Potato Powdery Scab Pathogen Spongospora subterranea

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2018
The Plasmodiophorida (Phytomyxea, Rhizaria) are a group of protists that infect plants. Of this group, Spongospora subterranea causes major problems for the potato industry by causing powdery scab and root galling of potatoes and as vector for the Potato
