DOI: 10.1007/s00300-017-2106-3
Abstract: Microbial eukaryotes are increasingly being recognised for their role in global biogeochemical cycles, yet very few studies have focussed on their distribution in high-latitude stream sediments, an important habitat which influences stream water nutrient chemistry.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/femsec/fiab114
Abstract: East-African Great Lakes are old and unique natural resources heavily utilized by their bordering countries. In those lakes, ecosystem functioning is dominated by pelagic processes, where microorganisms are key components, however protistan diversity is barely… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/1462-2920.14035
Abstract: Proton-pumping rhodopsins provide an alternative pathway to photosynthesis by which solar energy can enter the marine food web. Rhodopsin genes are widely found in marine bacteria, also in the Arctic, and were recently reported from… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jeu.12426
Abstract: It is widely held that sterols are key cyclic triterpenoid lipids in eukaryotic cell membranes and are synthesized through oxygen‐dependent multienzyme pathways. However, there are known exceptions―ciliated protozoans, such as Tetrahymena, along with diverse low‐oxygen‐adapted… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/mec.16745
Abstract: Single-celled microbial eukaryotes inhabit deep-sea hydrothermal vent environments and play critical ecological roles in the vent-associated microbial food web. 18S rRNA amplicon sequencing of diffuse venting fluids from four geographically- and geochemically-distinct hydrothermal vent fields… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12864-020-06858-7
Abstract: Most diversity in the eukaryotic tree of life is represented by microbial eukaryotes, which is a polyphyletic group also referred to as protists. Among the protists, currently sequenced genomes and transcriptomes give a biased view… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2017.01099
Abstract: Microbial eukaryotes can play prominent roles in the Arctic marine ecosystem, but their diversity and variability is not well known in the ice-covered ecosystems. We determined the community composition of microbial eukaryotes in an Arctic… read more here.

Contrasting Community Composition of Active Microbial Eukaryotes in Melt Ponds and Sea Water of the Arctic Ocean Revealed by High Throughput Sequencing
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Frontiers in Microbiology"
DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2020.01170
Abstract: Melt ponds (MPs), form as the result of thawing of snow and sea ice in the summer, have lower albedo than the sea ice and are thus partly responsible for the polar amplification of global… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/d13050180
Abstract: The procedures and methodologies employed to study microbial eukaryotic plankton have been thoroughly discussed. Two main schools exist—one insisting on classic microscopy methodologies and the other supporting modern high-throughput sequencing (DNA metabarcoding). However, few studies… read more here.
