New #ISEPpapers #preprint! #MeteoraSporadica, a #protist with incredible cell architecture, is related to #Hemimastigophora: Yana Eglit et al. https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2023.08.13.553137v1 #protists #microbes #ultrastructure #protistology #microbiology #science #discovery
"Meteora sporadica is a protist with a unique morphology and motility; cells glide over substrates along a long axis of anterior and posterior projections, and have a pair of lateral ‘arms’ that swing back and forth."

They’re tiny but deadly - a glimpse into the ciliate culture that’s responsible for killing sea urchins in the Caribbean (each ciliate is about 1/20th of a millimeter long) #USFCMS #urchin #marine #microscopy #science #microbiology #protist #ocean #oceanography

We spent most of 2022 hunting down a sea urchin killer - and the results are published in Science Advances today - check out this story (with lots of great photos) by #USFCMS - https://www.usf.edu/marine-science/news/2023/scientists-identify-2022-sea-urchin-killer.aspx summarizing the work. #urchin #Diadema #disease #ocean #marine #oceanography #ciliate #protist #ecology #research #science #invertebrate #microscopy 🧵

A quick guide to understand purple photosymbioses and its key partners.
This was a weird one. So pretty and I’d never seen anything like it! The wonderful @microbe_guru over on insta came to my rescue once more and informed me it is a Radiosperma - a protist. I know nothing about them, so I’m off to read a paper.

If I am interested in Mitochondria and microbial pathogens which groups work should I check out? Any tips? #microbes #pathogens #mitochondria #protist #fungi #plants
(Obviously doing my research but asking for swarm intelligence lead to me finding really brilliant stuff I likely would have missed earlier)
