Single-Cell Transcriptomes and Phylogenomic Analysis of Uncultivated Oxymonads. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The oxymonads are anaerobic protist symbionts of animals with spectacular morphological complexity and variability, but because only a handful of species have been cultured, very little data are available for the group. This includes molecular data, with only a couple of species having sequenced genomes or transcriptomes. Oxymonads are divided

Reproductive mechanisms in a Nasutitermes species (Isoptera: Termitidae) [PDF]
The number of reproductive individuals present in colonies of Nasutitermes sp. was analysed, and its possible reproductive strategy discussed. Twenty-four nests were collected and opened, and a single queen and king were found in 17 of them. In the other 7 nests, no queen or king were neither found, nor any other reproductive individual.

Complete Genome Sequence of Sporomusa termitida DSM 4440 T
Sporomusa termitida type strain DSM 4440 was isolated from the intestinal content of the termite Nasutitermes nigriceps . The genome consists of one circular chromosome (5,185,220 bp) and a megaplasmid (131,121 bp) with an overall G+C content of 49.11%. It harbors 4,764 predicted protein-encoding genes.
