Light-dependent processes on the cathode enhance the electrical outputs of sediment microbial fuel cells
2018, BioelectrochemistryCitation Excerpt :Approximately 77% of the species are not classified or cultured (Table 3). Although the 18S amplification primers used are primarily for the determination of fungi, the most abundant classified species Centropyxis laevigata (18.46%) belongs to the family of Amoebozoa, ranked as a phylum within either the kingdom Protista [44] or the kingdom Protozoa, living in fresh-water habitats and soil. It has to be mentioned that algae Chlorella as well as some pathogenic to human bacteria (from class Gammaproteobacteria (9.96%) and phylum Firmicutes (1.16%)) can grow inside the cytoplasm of some protists from family Amoebozoa [45,46].
Unusually abundant and large ciliate xenomas in oysters, Crassostrea virginica, from Great Bay, New Hampshire, USA
2016, Journal of Invertebrate PathologyCitation Excerpt :This study produced significant information about the highly prevalent and unusually large intracellular parasite colonies, or xenomas, in oysters from Great Bay, New Hampshire, USA. Microscopic analyses confirmed the inclusion of the causative organisms in the phylum Ciliophora because they possess a heterokaryotic nuclear condition with both a macronucleus and a micronucleus (Corliss, 1979, 1984; Small and Lynn, 1985; Lynn and Corliss, 1991). Furthermore, early life stages possess cilia that are arranged in a complex infraciliature system, with kineties radiating away from the oral apparatus in a patch on one surface of the organism.
Do All Dinoflagellates have an Extranuclear Spindle?
2015, ProtistCitation Excerpt :The core dinoflagellates are essentially equivalent to the subphylum Dinokaryota Fensome et al. 1993 and consist of a diverse array of photosynthetic and heterotrophic species encompassing free-living and symbiotic life styles. The syndineans, subphylum Syndinea (Corliss 1984) Fensome et al. 1993, are heterotrophic parasites that inhabit cells or body fluids of their hosts (Cachon and Cachon 1987; Coats 1999). Analysis of 18S ribosomal DNA sequences from environmental clone libraries and known parasite genera or species, sort the syndineans into five major lineages basal to the core dinoflagellates; Group I to V of Guillou et al. (2008).
Early evolution of eukaryote feeding modes, cell structural diversity, and classification of the protozoan phyla Loukozoa, Sulcozoa, and Choanozoa
2013, European Journal of ProtistologyCitation Excerpt :These are not yet assimilated into broader biology, partly because specialists enthusiastic to portray these remarkable cellular differences can lose sight of the prime requirement of classification as a simplifying device to help our minds grasp biodiversity, and over-split taxa. One early review listed 45 protist phyla (Corliss 1985) and others speak of 70 major distinct cell ‘ultrastructural identities’ in eukaryotes (over 40 in flagellates alone) (Patterson 1999). We are now in a consolidation phase in which such bewildering numbers of separate major groups have been greatly reduced (Cavalier-Smith 2002b, 2004a, 2007b, 2003b), establishing larger phyla comparable to the classical higher phyla like Chordata, Mollusca, Arthropoda, and Tracheophyta in the distinctiveness of their contrasting body plans and general biological significance.
Genetic diversity of Labyrinthula terrestris, a newly emergent plant pathogen, and the discovery of new Labyrinthulid organisms
2009, Mycological ResearchCitation Excerpt :These organisms are stramenopiles, not true fungi, but have traditionally been studied by mycologists. They are commonly referred to as the marine net slime molds although they are not related to true slime molds (Corliss 1984; Craven et al. 2005; Muehlstein & Porter 1991; Olsen et al. 2003; Olsen 2007). Labyrinthula spp. form an ectoplasmic network in which the somatic cells move or ‘glide’.
