The Phanerozoic diversification of silica-cycling testate amoebae and its possible links to changes in terrestrial ecosystems [PDF]
The terrestrial cycling of Si is thought to have a large influence on the terrestrial and marine primary production, as well as the coupled biogeochemical cycles of Si and C.

Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is widely used for biodiversity monitoring, but short‐read sequencing limits detailed taxonomic identification, especially for protists. In a comparison of short‐ and long‐read approaches in the Belgian North Sea, long‐read metabarcoding provided deeper taxonomic assignment under the applied workflows and improved

Clubroot, caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae Woronin, is one of the most important diseases of oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.). The rapid erosion of monogenic resistance in clubroot-resistant (CR) varieties underscores the need to diversify resistance ...

Drivers and assemblies of soil eukaryotic microbes among different soil habitat types in a semi-arid mountain in China [PDF]
The effects of environmental and species structure on soil eukaryotic microbes inhabiting semi-arid mountains remain unclear. Furthermore, whether community assembly differs in a variety of soil habitat types, for example, artificial forest, artificial ...

Cyanobacterial contribution to the genomes of the plastid-lacking protists [PDF]
Background Eukaryotic genes with cyanobacterial ancestry in plastid-lacking protists have been regarded as important evolutionary markers implicating the presence of plastids in the early evolution of eukaryotes.

Metabarcoding and biomass quantification reveal seasonal parasite associations in copepods
Abstract Parasites are important members of ecosystems, and recent metabarcoding efforts have revealed an abundance of microbial eukaryotic parasites in copepods. However, a putative linkage to host community biomass and composition has not been addressed. We performed zooplankton tows monthly for 2 yr at five stations in the Oslofjord, Norway.

A Novel Phytomyxean Parasite Associated with Galls on the Bull-Kelp Durvillaea antarctica (Chamisso) Hariot [PDF]
Durvillaea antarctica (Fucales, Phaeophyceae) is a large kelp of high ecological and economic significance in the Southern Hemisphere. In natural beds along the central coast of Chile (Pacific Ocean), abnormal growth characterized by evident gall ...
