Euglenozoa is a species-rich group of protists, which have extremely diverse lifestyles and a
range of features that distinguish them from other eukaryotes. They are composed of free …

Microbial interactions are crucial for Earth ecosystem function, but our knowledge about
them is limited and has so far mainly existed as scattered records. Here, we have surveyed …

Offshore aquaculture has gained momentum in recent years, and the production of an
increasing number of marine fish species is being relocated offshore. Initially, predictions of …

Free-living amoebae are protists frequently found in water and soils. They feed on other
microorganisms, mainly bacteria, and digest them through phagocytosis. It is accepted that …

Marine farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) are susceptible to recurrent amoebic gill
disease (AGD) caused by the ectoparasite Neoparamoeba perurans over the growout …

Free-living amoebae (FLA) are ubiquitous and many isolates have been shown to be
infected with amoeba-resisting bacteria, as the example of Acanthamoeba and Legionella …

The unicellular trypanosomatids belong to the phylum Euglenozoa and all known species
are obligate parasites. Distinct lineages infect plants, invertebrates, and vertebrates …

Phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) is a glycolytic enzyme that is well conserved among the
three domains of life. PGK is usually a monomeric enzyme of about 45 kDa that catalyses …

From unicellular protists to the largest megafauna and flora, all eukaryotes depend upon the
organelles and processes of the intracellular membrane trafficking system. Well-defined …

Abstract Background The Euglenozoa are a protist group with an especially rich history of
evolutionary diversity. They include diplonemids, representing arguably the most species …
