Summary Phytomyxea are intracellular biotrophic parasites infecting plants and stramenopiles, including the agriculturally impactful Plasmodiophora brassicae and the brown seaweed pathogen Maullinia ectocarpii. They belong to the clade Rhizaria, where phagotrophy is the main mode of nutrition.

The need for an integrated multi‐OMICs approach in microbiome science in the food system
Abstract Microbiome science as an interdisciplinary research field has evolved rapidly over the past two decades, becoming a popular topic not only in the scientific community and among the general public, but also in the food industry due to the growing demand for microbiome‐based technologies that provide added‐value solutions.

Ecological functions of zoosporic hyperparasites
Zoosporic parasites have received increased attention during the last years, but it is still largely unnoted that these parasites can themselves be infected by hyperparasites.

Abstract Protistan algae (phytoplankton) dominate coastal upwelling ecosystems where they form massive blooms that support the world's most important fisheries and constitute an important sink for atmospheric CO2. Bloom initiation is well understood, but the biotic and abiotic forces that shape short‐term dynamics in community composition are still ...

Current ecological understanding of fungal-like pathogens of fish: what lies beneath? [PDF]
Despite increasingly sophisticated microbiological techniques, and long after the first discovery of microbes, basic knowledge is still lacking to fully appreciate the ecological importance of microbial parasites in fish. This is likely due to the nature

The rhizosphere: a playground and battlefield for soilborne pathogens and beneficial microorganisms [PDF]
The rhizosphere is a hot spot of microbial interactions as exudates released by plant roots are a main food source for microorganisms and a driving force of their population density and activities.

The aphelids, intracellular parasitoids of algae, have a life cycle similar to zoosporic fungi Chytridiomycota and Blastocladiomycota, and are positioned as a sister clade to all fungi on the recent multigene phylogenetic tree.

In situ associations between marine photosynthetic picoeukaryotes and potential parasites - a role for fungi? [PDF]
Photosynthetic picoeukaryotes (PPEs) are important components of the marine picophytoplankton community playing a critical role in CO2 fixation but also as bacterivores, particularly in the oligotrophic gyres.

Fungal evolution: major ecological adaptations and evolutionary transitions
Fungi are a highly diverse group of heterotrophic eukaryotes characterized by the absence of phagotrophy and the presence of a chitinous cell wall. While unicellular fungi are far from rare, part of the evolutionary success of the group resides in their ...

MALDI-TOF MS for identification of food spoilage filamentous fungi [PDF]
Filamentous fungi (ff) are a diverse group of unique eukaryotic organisms currently accepted to belong to the Eumycota kingdom. They are ubiquitous in nature with an extraordinary ability to decompose plant wastes while also causing much spoilage of food
