Marine bacterial community structure resilience to changes in protist predation under phytoplankton bloom conditions
(Nature Publishing Group, 2016-03)
To test whether protist grazing selectively affects the composition of aquatic bacterial communities, we combined high-throughput sequencing to determine bacterial community composition with analyses of grazing rates, ...
Freshwater protists: unveiling the unexplored in a large floodplain system
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-11)
Protists play a fundamental role in all ecosystems, but we are still far from estimating the total diversity of many lineages, in particular in highly diverse environments, such as freshwater. Here, we survey the protist ...
Protist taxonomic and functional diversity in soil, freshwater and marine ecosystems
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021-01)
Protists dominate eukaryotic diversity and play key functional roles in all ecosystems, particularly by catalyzing carbon and nutrient cycling. To date, however, a comparative analysis of their taxonomic and functional ...
Protist Herbivory: A Key Pathway in the Pelagic Food Web of Lake Tanganyika
(Springer, 2011-08)
Herbivory and bacterivory by phagotrophic protists were estimated in the southern basin of the oligotrophic Lake Tanganyika at different seasons (in the rainy season in February–March 2007 and in the dry season in July–August ...
From toilet to agriculture: Fertilization with microalgal biomass from wastewater impacts the soil and rhizosphere active microbiomes, greenhouse gas emissions and plant growth
(2020-10-01)
Human activities are pushing earth beyond its natural limits, so recycling nutrients is mandatory. Microalgae are highly effective in nutrient recovery and have strong potential as a sustainable wastewater treatment ...
Spatiotemporal Variations in Antarctic Protistan Communities Highlight Phytoplankton Diversity and Seasonal Dominance by a Novel Cryptophyte Lineage
(American Society for Microbiology, 2021-12)
The Andvord fjord in the West Antarctic Peninsula (WAP) is known for its productivity and abundant megafauna. Nevertheless, seasonal patterns of the molecular diversity and abundance of protistan community members underpinning ...
Planktonic eukaryote molecular diversity: Discrimination of minerotrophic and ombrotrophic peatland pools in Tierra del Fuego (Argentina)
(Oxford University Press, 2014-11)
We investigated the composition of the smallest size fraction (<3 μm) of eukaryotic plankton communities of five pools located in the Rancho Hambre peat bog in Argentinean Tierra del Fuego with an IlluminaHiSeq massive ...
Microbial eukaryotes assemblages and potential novel diversity in four tropical East-African Great Lakes
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-08-02)
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; ...

Contrasted micro-eukaryotic diversity associated with Sphagnum mosses in tropical, subtropical and temperate climatic zones
(Springer, 2019-10)
Sphagnum-dominated ecosystem plays major roles as carbon sinks at the global level. Associated microbial communities, in particular, eukaryotes, play significant roles in nutrient fixation and turnover. In order to understand ...
