Collection of X-ray micro computed tomography images of shells of planktic foraminifera with curated taxonomy

open access: yesScientific Data, 2023
Calcite shells of planktic foraminifera (Protista, Rhizaria) constitute a large portion of deep-sea sediments. The shells are constructed by sequential addition of partly overlapping chambers with diverse shapes, resulting in complex shell architectures,

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.

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 ...

Landscape Setting Drives the Microbial Eukaryotic Community Structure in Four Swedish Mountain Lakes over the Holocene

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2021
On the annual and interannual scales, lake microbial communities are known to be heavily influenced by environmental conditions both in the lake and in its terrestrial surroundings.

Broadly sampled multigene trees of eukaryotes

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2008
Background Our understanding of the eukaryotic tree of life and the tremendous diversity of microbial eukaryotes is in flux as additional genes and diverse taxa are sampled for molecular analyses.

Contrasting Responses of Protistan Plant Parasites and Phagotrophs to Ecosystems, Land Management and Soil Properties

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Functional traits are increasingly used in ecology to link the structure of microbial communities to ecosystem processes. We investigated two important protistan lineages, Cercozoa and Endomyxa (Rhizaria) in soil using Illumina sequencing and analyzed ...

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
