TLDR
The Vampyrellida (Endomyxa, Rhizaria) is a group of free-living, predatory amoebae which is most closely related to the Phytomyxea (plasmodiophorids and phagomyxids) as mentioned in this paper .About:

Journal ArticleDOI
A diverse group of underappreciated zygnematophytes deserves in-depth exploration
Anna Friederike Busch,S Hess +1 more
TL;DR: The authors presented an updated rbcL gene phylogeny of the conjugating green algae, including several new lineages of Mesotaenium-like zygnematophytes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kinopus chlorellivorus gen. nov., sp. nov. (Vampyrellida, Rhizaria), a New Algivorous Protist Predator Isolated from Large-Scale Outdoor Cultures of Chlorella sorokiniana
TL;DR: A new genus and species of algivorous vampyrellid amoeba, Kinopus chlorellivorus, is described as a significant grazer responsible for losses in outdoor industrial Chlorella cultures and should be of concern to operators of algal production facilities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental evidence for enzymatic cell wall dissolution in a microbial protoplast feeder (Orciraptor agilis, Viridiraptoridae)
TL;DR: In this article , the GH5_5 catalytic domain from Orciraptor agilis was recombinantly produced and its catalytic domains were studied to assess the importance of this carbohydrate-active enzyme in the feeding act of the protoplast feeder.
Journal ArticleDOI
Globally‐distributed microbial eukaryotes exhibit endemism at deep‐sea hydrothermal vents
TL;DR: In this article , 18S rRNA amplicon sequencing of diffuse venting fluids from four geographically and geochemically-distinct hydrothermal vent fields was applied to investigate community diversity patterns among protistan assemblages.

Phagocytosis underpins the biotrophic lifestyle of intracellular parasites in the class Phytomyxea (Rhizaria)
Andrea Garvetto,Pedro Murúa,Martin Kirchmair,Willi Salvenmoser,Michaela Hittorf,Stefan Ciaghi,Srilakshmy L. Harikrishnan,Claire M. M. Gachon,John A. Burns,Sigrid Neuhauser +9 more
TL;DR: Light is shed on the feeding behaviour of Phytomyxea, providing new molecular data for the class; and a paramount and previously unrecognised role for phagocytosis in biotrophic interactions between host and parasite is suggested.

Journal ArticleDOI
MUSCLE: multiple sequence alignment with high accuracy and high throughput
TL;DR: MUSCLE is a new computer program for creating multiple alignments of protein sequences that includes fast distance estimation using kmer counting, progressive alignment using a new profile function the authors call the log-expectation score, and refinement using tree-dependent restricted partitioning.
Journal ArticleDOI
RAxML version 8: a tool for phylogenetic analysis and post-analysis of large phylogenies.
TL;DR: This work presents some of the most notable new features and extensions of RAxML, such as a substantial extension of substitution models and supported data types, the introduction of SSE3, AVX and AVX2 vector intrinsics, techniques for reducing the memory requirements of the code and a plethora of operations for conducting post-analyses on sets of trees.
Journal ArticleDOI
The characterization of enzymatically amplified eukaryotic 16S-like rRNA-coding regions.
TL;DR: Oligodeoxynucleotides that are complementary to conserved regions at the 5' and 3' termini of eukaryotic 16S-like rRNAs were used to prime DNA synthesis in repetitive cycles of denaturation, reannealing, and DNA synthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of the global ecology, genomics, and biogeography of the toxic cyanobacterium, Microcystis spp.
Matthew J. Harke,Morgan M. Steffen,Christopher J. Gobler,Timothy G. Otten,Steven W. Wilhelm,Susanna A. Wood,Hans W. Paerl +6 more
TL;DR: The ability of Microcystis assemblages to minimize their mortality losses by resisting grazing by zooplankton and bivalves, as well as viral lysis, and discuss factors facilitating assemblage resilience are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI
A revised classification of the phylum protozoa.
B. M. Honigberg,Balamuth W,Bovee Ec,John O. Corliss,Gojdics M,Russell P. Hall,Kudo Rr,Levine Nd,Alfred R. Loeblich,Weiser J,Wenrich Dh +10 more
TL;DR: Several major shifts of taxonomic significance have been introduced at all levels treated, including the subphyla, and these revisions are explained in appropriately placed footnotes.
