Systemic infection of freshwater crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus by hymenostome ciliates of the Tetrahymena pyriformis complex [PDF]
A survey of cultured freshwater crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus in north Queensland revealed systemic infections by hymenostome ciliates in moribund crayfish from one location. The ciliates were identified following protargol impregnation as belonging to

Parallel evolution of histophagy in ciliates of the genus
Background Species of Tetrahymena were grouped into three complexes based on morphological and life history traits: the pyriformis complex of microstomatous forms; the patula complex of microstome-macrostome transformers; and the rostrata complex of ...

Physiological responses of Tetrahymena pyriformis to copper, zinc, cycloheximide and Triton X-100 [PDF]
Protozoa, and particularly ciliates, are essential in aerobic purification processes of wastewaters and have proved to be very sensitive to environmental changes. The physiological response of the ciliate Tetrahymena pyriformis was assessed in terms of

The ciliate protist tetrahymena pyriformis as a cellular adhesion model for the pathogenic bacterium staphylococcus aureus [PDF]
Staphylococcus aureus is one of the main pathogenic agents responsible for nosocomial and community-acquired bacterial infections. The pathogenicity of this Gram-positive bacterium is ensured by its different adhesion factors.

Ostracods (Crustacea): A new host for the Tetrahymena pyriformis complex (Ciliophora) [PDF]
Ostracods are very old and small crustaceans that have a reduced body carrying several appendages, encapsulated by a carapace in the shape of two bilaterally symmetrical valves (Horne et al. 2002).

Tandemly repeated C-C-C-C-A-A hexanucleotide of Tetrahymena rDNA is present elsewhere in the genome and may be related to the alteration of the somatic genome. [PDF]
The ribosomal RNA genes of the Tetrahymena macronucleus exist as extrachromosomal, linear molecules. The termini of these molecules have been shown to contain the tandemly repeated hexanucleotide (C-C-C-C-A-A)n.
