  @article{Kohl2023, abstract = {Ciliates are abundant unicellular organisms capable of resisting high concentrations of metal ions in the environment caused by various anthropogenic activities. Understanding the cellular pathways involved in resistance to and detoxification of elements is required to predict the impact of ciliates on environmental element cycles. Here, we investigated the so far unknown process of tolerance, cellular uptake and bioaccumulation of the emerging rare earth element gadolinium (Gd) in the common ciliate Tetrahymena pyriformis. Gd treatment results in the intracellular formation and excretion of biogenic Gd-containing particles. This cellular process effectively removes dissolved Gd from the organic growth medium by 53.37{\%} within 72 h. Based on light and electron microscopic observations, we postulate a detoxification pathway: Cells take up toxic Gd3+ ions from the medium by endocytosis, process them into stable Gd-containing particles within food vacuoles, and exocytose them. Stable biogenic particles can be isolated, which are relatively homogeneous and have a diameter of about 3 {\textmu}m. They consist of the elements Gd, C, O, P, Na, Mg, K, and Ca. These findings broaden the view of metal ion accumulation by protists and are of relevance to understand environmental elemental cycles and may inspire approaches for metal recovery or bioremediation.}, author = {Kohl, Jana and Schweikert, Michael and Klaas, Norbert and Lemloh, Marie-Louise}, day = 06, doi = {10.1038/s41598-023-32596-3}, issn = {2045-2322}, journal = {Scientific Reports}, month = {04}, number = 1, pages = 5650, title = {Intracellular bioaccumulation of the rare earth element Gadolinium in ciliate cells resulting in biogenic particle formation and excretion}, url = {https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-023-32596-3}, volume = 13, year = 2023 }

  @article{D2OB00907B, abstract = {Strategies for synthesizing polyhydroxylated piperidines such as iminosugars have received broad attention. These substances are known to interact with carbohydrate related enzymes{,} glycosidases and glycosyltransferases{,} to which also the large enzyme families of chitin synthases and cellulose synthases belong. Many chemical and biological aspects of chitin synthases remain unexplored due to the fact that modulating substances are hardly available or expensive. Starting from enantiopure d- and l-amino acids{,} a series of iminosugars was prepared by a Lewis acid-catalyzed cyclization of amino acid-derived unsaturated aldehydes as key step. Therefore{,} different Lewis acids were tested. For samarium diiodide we observed a superior stereoselectivity in comparison to iron(iii) chloride and methylaluminium dichloride. To increase water solubility for testing and measurement of enzyme activity{,} the cyclization products were further functionalized. We established a novel biological chitin synthesis test system which allows quantitative investigation of chitin synthesis in the chitin fiber producing diatom algae Thalassiosira in vivo under the light microscope. None of the compounds displayed cytotoxicity{,} but two of the four iminosugars increased the length of the chitin fibers produced. This is a strong indicator that these compounds mimic carbohydrates responsible for restarting chitin polymerization.}, author = {Holzwarth, Marcel and Ludwig, Jan and Bernz, Alexander and Claasen, Birgit and Majoul, Asma and Reuter, Julia and Zens, Anna and Pawletta, Brigitte and Bilitewski, Ursula and Weiss, Ingrid M. and Laschat, Sabine}, doi = {10.1039/D2OB00907B}, journal = {Org.

  @article{strohm2022nucleation, abstract = {The formation of ikaite (CaCO3x6H2O) was studied in the presence and absence of quartz and mica surfaces using desupersaturation curves from cryo-mixed-batch-reactor experiments. Upon nucleation and growth within the reactor, the solution approached solubility of the precipitating carbonate phase. For ikaite, a solubility constant of log Ksp ikaite = −7.3 ± 0.1 was found (T = 0 °C). At supersaturations Ωikaite < 15, the nucleation of ikaite was significantly promoted by the presence of quartz or mica. This promotion prevented a competing nucleation of anhydrous calcium carbonates. In the presence of quartz or mica, therefore, ikaite forms over a much broader supersaturation range than in the absence. Similarly strong promotors of ikaite nucleation rather than anhydrous carbonate nucleation were previously attributed to calcite-inhibiting substances only. At supersaturations Ωikaite ≥ 8, application of classical nucleation theory on induction periods of ikaite formation yielded an effective interfacial energy of 15 ± 3 mJ/m2. Compared to data of anhydrous CaCO3 phases, this interfacial energy is low and expresses the highly hydrated character of ikaite. At supersaturations Ωikaite ≥ 18, a transient amorphous phase appeared besides ikaite. Our results show that a comprehensive understanding of ikaite formation in natural settings requires consideration not only of supersaturation and presence of calcite-inhibitors but also of the presence or absence of mineral surfaces capable of promoting heterogeneous nucleation of ikaite.}, author = {Strohm, Samuel B. and Inckemann, Sebastian E. and Gao, Kun and Schweikert, Michael and Lemloh, Marie-Louise and Schmahl, Wolfgang W. and Jordan, Guntram}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chemgeo.2022.121089}, issn = {00092541}, journal = {Chemical Geology}, pages = {121089--}, title = {On the nucleation of ikaite (CaCO3x6H2O) – A comparative study in the presence and absence of mineral surfaces}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0009254122003837}, volume = 611, year = 2022 }

While there have been a few attempts to study the three-dimensional dynamics of these processes, most studies have focused on the dynamics extracted from single focal planes. However, the relation between the dynamics and three-dimensional cell shape remains elusive, due to the lack of signaling information about the unobserved part of the membrane. Here we show that PtdInsP3 wave dynamics are directly regulated by the three-dimensional geometry - size and shape - of the plasma membrane. By introducing an analysis method that extracts the three-dimensional spatiotemporal activities on the entire cell membrane, we show that PtdInsP3 waves self- regulate their dynamics within the confined membrane area. This leads to changes in speed, orientation and pattern evolution, following the underlying excitability of the signal transduction system. Our findings emphasize the role of the plasma membrane topology in reaction-diffusion driven biological systems and indicate its importance in other mammalian systems.}, author = {H{\"o}rning, Marcel and Shibata, Tatsuo}, doi = {10.1016/j.bpj.2018.12.012}, eprint = {https://www.biorxiv.org/content/early/2018/03/08/278853.full.pdf}, journal = {Biophysical Journal}, number = 2, pages = {372-382}, publisher = {Cell Press}, title = {Three-dimensional cell geometry controls excitable membrane signaling in Dictyotelium cells}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0006349518345077?via%3Dihub}, volume = 116, year = 2019 }

  @incollection{weiss2019mineralchitin, abstract = {Chitin mineralization is just one of the many challenging aspects of biomineralization, the process by which living organisms produce minerals. The ability to form genetically determined mineralized skeletons must have existed for the past 550 million years. However, key molecular and evolutionary mechanisms which led to this ability remain enigmatic. Our understanding of enzymatic and biosynthetic aspects of mineralized chitinous exoskeletons is still in its infancy. The chitin synthases of molluscs differ from chitin synthases of all other organisms mainly in two aspects: A myosin domain and highly conserved, mollusc-specific patterns of charged amino acids. The latter bear the potential to interact in a pH-dependent manner, either with themselves or with mineral phases and/or with highly charged soluble or insoluble biomineralization proteins. The molecular diversity of these so-called biomineralization proteins is enormous, perhaps one of the reasons for deflecting attention away from mollusc chitin synthases until today. This chapter aims at closing conceptual gaps related to the biological dynamics of transmembrane myosin chitin synthases, with their cytoskeleton-based signaling potential for regulating microvilli and extracellular pattern formation on multi-scale levels.}, address = {Cham}, author = {Weiss, Ingrid M.}, booktitle = {Extracellular Sugar-Based Biopolymers Matrices}, chapter = 2, doi = {10.1007/978-3-030-12919-4_2}, isbn = {978-3-030-12919-4}, pages = {57-93}, publisher = {Springer}, series = {Biologically-Inspired Systems}, title = {Mineral-Chitin Composites in Molluscs}, url = {https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-12919-4_2}, volume = 12, year = 2019 }

Using calcium imaging, we show that within the ring, traveling waves (TWs) of action potential spontaneously originated and ran robustly at a frequency up to 4 Hz. After 2 weeks, SOTRs with TW training showed matured features including structural organization, increased cardiac-specific gene expression, enhanced Ca2+-handling properties, an increased oxygen-consumption rate, and enhanced contractile force. We subsequently used a mathematical model to interpret the origination, propagation, and long-term behavior of the TWs within the SOTRs.

Characteristic features are their infectivity, the presence of two distinct morphotypes, and usually a strict specialization for a single Paramecium species as host and for a nuclear compartment (either somatic or generative nucleus) for reproduction. Holospora caryophila steps out of line, naturally occurring in Paramecium biaurelia and Paramecium caudatum. This study addresses the phylogenetic relationship among H. caryophila and other Holospora species based on 16S rRNA gene sequence comparison analyzing the type strain and seven new macronuclear symbionts. Key aspects of Holospora physiology such as infectivity, symbiosis establishment and host range were determined by comprehensive infection assays. Detailed morphological investigations and sequence-based phylogeny confirmed a high similarity between the type strain of H. caryophila and the novel strains. Surprisingly, they are only distantly related to other Holospora species suggesting that they belong to a new genus within the family Holosporaceae, here described as Preeria caryophila comb. nov. Adding to this phylogenetic distance, we also observed a much broader host range, comprising at least eleven Paramecium species.

Even though many endosymbioses have been studied in detail, little is known about the mechanistic origins and physiological prerequisites of endosymbiont establishment. A logical step towards the development of endocytobiotic associations is evading digestion and escaping from the host's food vacuoles. Surface properties of bacteria are probably involved in these processes. Therefore, we chemically modified the surface of a transformant strain of Escherichia coli prior to feeding to Tetrahymena pyriformis . N‐(3‐dimethylaminopropyl)‐N’‐ethylcarbodiimide allows any substance carrying amino‐ or carboxyl groups to be bound covalently to the bacterial surface by forming a peptide bond, thus, altering its properties biochemically and biophysically in a predictable manner. The effect of different traits on digestion of T. pyriformis was examined by fluorescence and transmission electron microscopy. The efficiency of digestion differs considerably depending on the coupled substances. Alkaline substances inhibit digestion partially, resulting in incomplete digestion and slightly enhanced escape rates. Increasing hydrophobicity leads to much higher escape frequencies. Both results point to possible mechanisms employed by pathogenic bacteria or potential endosymbionts in evading digestion and transmission to the host's cytoplasm.}, author = {Siegmund, Lisa and Schweikert, Michael and Fischer, Martin S. and Wostemeyer, Johannes}, doi = {10.1111/jeu.12504}, journal = {Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology}, month = {01}, number = 5, title = {Bacterial Surface Traits Influence Digestion by Tetrahymena pyriformis and Alter Opportunity to Escape from Food Vacuoles}, url = {https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/jeu.12504}, volume = 65, year = 2018 }

The endosymbionts were clearly found to be affiliated to the species ``Candidatus Trichorickettsia mobilis'' (Rickettsiales, Rickettsiaceae), currently encompassing only bacteria retrieved in an obligate intracellular association with other ciliates. However, a relatively high degree of intraspecific divergence was observed as well, thus it was possible to split ``Candidatus Trichorickettsia'' into three subspecies, one of which represented so far only by the newly characterized endosymbionts of P. calkinsi. Other features distinguished the members of each different subspecies. In particular, the endosymbionts of P. calkinsi resided in the cytoplasm and possessed numerous peritrichous flagella, although no motility was evidenced, whereas their conspecifics in other hosts were either cytoplasmic and devoid of flagella, or macronuclear, displaying flagellar-driven motility.

However, it remains unknown if the line defects are static or dynamically changing structures in heart tissue. Through in vitro experiments of heart tissue observation, we reveal the spatiotemporal dynamics of line defects in rotating spiral waves. We combined a novel signaling over-sampling technique with a multi-dimensional Fourier analysis, showing that line defects can translate, merge, collapse and form stable singularities with even and odd parity while maintaining a stable oscillation of the spiral wave in the tissue. These findings provide insights into a broad class of complex periodic systems, with particular impact to the control and understanding of heart diseases.}, author = {Hörning, Marcel and Blanchard, François and Isomura, Akihiro and Yoshikawa, Kenichi}, doi = {10.1038/s41598-017-08011-z}, issn = {20452322}, journal = {Scientific Reports}, number = 1, pages = {7757--}, refid = {Hörning2017}, title = {Dynamics of spatiotemporal line defects and chaos control in complex excitable systems}, url = {https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-017-08011-z}, volume = 7, year = 2017 }

They are anaerobic microeukaryotes usually occurring as rare species in sapropelic environments. Here we describe a novel species of Discomorphella, named Discomorphella pedroeneasi sp. nov., using light and electron microscopy observations. Discomorphella pedroeneasi displays many complex morphological features, for which new terms are introduced, such as the auricules, epistomial fringe spacer, frontal awning, odontostomatid ciliary sockets, oral lips and ventral flap. Remarkably, D. pedroeneasi has at least six types of endocytobionts, including intramacronuclear ones, and organelles ultrastructurally similar to the M/H bodies of the odontostomatid Saprodinium dentatum. Based on the new data and revision of the literature, we propose two new diagnostic characters for species separation within Discomorphella: the fringe spacer ratio and the posterior fringe ratio.

  @article{horning2017dynamic, abstract = {A new class of supramolecular hydrogels, cross-linked by host-guest interactions between β-cyclodextrin (βCD) and adamantane, were designed for the dynamic regulation of cell-substrate interactions. The initial substrate elasticity can be optimized by selecting the molar fraction of host- and guest monomers for the target cells. Moreover, owing to the reversible nature of host-guest interactions, the magnitude of softening and stiffening of the substrate can be modulated by varying the concentrations of free, competing host molecules (βCD) in solutions. By changing the substrate elasticity at a desired time point, it is possible to switch the micromechanical environments of cells. We demonstrated that the Young’s modulus of our “host-guest gels”, 4–11 kPa, lies in an optimal range not only for static (ex situ) but also for dynamic (in situ) regulation of cell morphology and cytoskeletal ordering of myoblasts. Compared to other stimulus-responsive materials that can either change the elasticity only in one direction or rely on less biocompatible stimuli such as UV light and temperature change, our supramolecular hydrogel enables to reversibly apply mechanical cues to various cell types in vitro without interfering cell viability.}, author = {Hörning, Marcel and Nakahata, Masaki and Linke, Philipp and Yamamoto, Akihisa and Veschgini, Mariam and Kaufmann, Stefan and Takashima, Yoshinori and Harada, Akira and Tanaka, Motomu}, doi = {10.1038/s41598-017-07934-x}, issn = {20452322}, journal = {Scientific Reports}, number = 1, pages = {7660--}, refid = {Hörning2017}, title = {Dynamic Mechano-Regulation of Myoblast Cells on Supramolecular Hydrogels Cross-Linked by Reversible Host-Guest Interactions}, url = {https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-017-07934-x}, volume = 7, year = 2017 }

  @article{Grossmann_JEM_2016, abstract = {Colourless, nonscaled chrysophytes comprise morphologically similar or even indistinguishable flagellates which are important bacterivors in water and soil crucial for ecosystem functioning. However, phylogenetic analyses indicate a multiple origin of such colourless, nonscaled flagellate lineages. These flagellates are often referred to as ``Spumella-like flagellates'' in ecological and biogeographic studies. Although this denomination reflects an assumed polyphyly, it obscures the phylogenetic and taxonomic diversity of this important flagellate group and, thus, hinders progress in lineage- and taxon-specific ecological surveys. The smallest representatives of colourless chrysophytes have been addressed in very few taxonomic studies although they are among the dominant flagellates in field communities. To overcome the blurred picture and set the field for further investigation in biogeography and ecology of the organisms in question, we studied a set of strains of specifically small, colourless, nonscaled chrysomonad flagellates by means of electron microscopy and molecular analyses. They were isolated by a filtration-acclimatisation approach focusing on flagellates of around 5~$\mu$m. We present the phylogenetic position of eight different lineages on both the ordinal and the generic level.

  @article{Vannini_PO_2014, abstract = {Bacteria of the family Rickettsiaceae have always been largely studied not only for their importance in the medical field, but also as model systems in evolutionary biology. In fact, they share a recent common ancestor with mitochondria. The most studied species, belonging to genera Rickettsia and Orientia, are hosted by terrestrial arthropods and include many human pathogens. Nevertheless, recent findings show that a large part of Rickettsiaceae biodiversity actually resides outside the group of well-known pathogenic bacteria. Collecting data on these recently described non-conventional members of the family is crucial in order to gain information on ancestral features of the whole group. Although bacteria of the family Rickettsiaceae, and of the whole order Rickettsiales, are formally described as non-flagellated prokaryotes, some recent findings renewed the debate about this feature. In this paper we report the first finding of members of the family displaying numerous flagella and active movement inside their host cells. These two new taxa are hosted in aquatic environments by protist ciliates and are described here by means of ultrastructural and molecular characterization. Data here reported suggest that the ancestor of Rickettsiales displayed flagellar movement and re-evaluate the hypothesis that motility played a key-role in the origin of mitochondria. Moreover, our study highlights that the aquatic environment represents a well exploited habitat for bacteria of the family Rickettsiaceae. Our results encourage a deep re-consideration of ecological and morphological traits of the family and of the whole order.}, author = {Vannini, Claudia and Boscaro, Vittorio and Ferrantini, Filippo and Benken, Konstantin A. and Mironov, Timofei I. and Schweikert, Michael and G\"ortz, Hans-Dieter and Fokin, Sergei I. and Sabaneyeva, Elena V. and Petroni, Giulio}, doi = {10.1371/journal.pone.0087718}, file = {/home/mike/Zotero/storage/28X8EET2/Vannini et al. - 2014 - Flagellar Movement in Two Bacteria of the Family R.pdf}, issn = {1932-6203}, journal = {PLOS ONE}, month = {02}, number = 2, pages = {e87718}, shorttitle = {Flagellar {{Movement}} in {{Two Bacteria}} of the {{Family Rickettsiaceae}}}, title = {Flagellar {{Movement}} in {{Two Bacteria}} of the {{Family Rickettsiaceae}}: {{A Re}}-{{Evaluation}} of {{Motility}} in an {{Evolutionary Perspective}}}, volume = 9, year = 2014 }

  @article{Hoppenrath_HA_2013, abstract = {Based on a literature review and new morphological and molecular phylogenetic data, a summary of all described benthic Prorocentrum species is presented. Short descriptions of the 29 species are provided including information and illustrations of platelet pattern. Increasing morphological data of the same taxon from different sites has revealed unexpected morphological variability. The variability of characters used for taxonomy is discussed. Many of these may be more variable than previously thought or phenotypically plastic. We conclude that the following features are constant within a species: (1) asymmetry or symmetry of the theca in combination with (2) the shape of the periflagellar area visible on the right thecal plate, (a) arc-shaped, (b) wide or simply V-shaped, (c) narrow and deep V-shaped, and (d) linear. At the same time, we are now beginning to understand that the cell shape of some species is more variable than thought and not in others. The stability of pore patterns is not known to date nor is it known whether the presence of a starch sheath is a reliable taxonomic character. The morphology of the periflagellar area might be a very useful character. The unstable terminology to describe similar or identical structures has made it difficult to interpret the literature on these features. Therefore a unified revised terminology for morphological features, cell orientation, and platelet numbering are proposed. This review highlights uncertainty in species boundaries of several potentially toxin producing species. This includes the species Prorocentrum hoffmannianum, Prorocentrum belizeanum, Prorocentrum maculosum, and Prorocentrum faustiae. Some species are reported to have variable toxicity, e.g. P. belizeanum and Prorocentrum rhathymum. It is clear that several species complexes, containing genetically related cryptic species, are present. The species complexes proposed in the past and in this paper reflect the difficulties in distinguishing these species, which may be highly morphologically similar to one another, sometimes despite genetic differences. Additionally, the growing molecular data set has allowed us to evaluate current species concepts based on novel molecular genetic information. As some Prorocentrum species are potentially toxic and are included in monitoring programs, it is important to evaluate species boundaries as currently understood, and to determine our current knowledge gaps regarding the relationship between species and strain identification and toxin production.}, author = {Hoppenrath, Mona and Chom\'erat, Nicolas and Horiguchi, Takeo and Schweikert, Michael and Nagahama, Yukio and Murray, Shauna}, doi = {10.1016/j.hal.2013.03.006}, file = {/home/mike/Zotero/storage/5KZPEYZ7/Hoppenrath et al. - 2013 - Taxonomy and phylogeny of the benthic Prorocentrum.pdf;/home/mike/Zotero/storage/JVA2YI5U/S1568988313000498.html}, issn = {1568-9883}, journal = {Harmful Algae}, month = {07}, pages = {1-28}, title = {Taxonomy and Phylogeny of the Benthic {{Prorocentrum}} Species ({{Dinophyceae}})\textemdash{{A}} Proposal and Review}, volume = 27, year = 2013 }

The present work reports the characterization following the full-cycle rRNA approach (SSU rRNA sequence, specific in situ hybridization, and ultrastructure) of a novel rickettsial bacterium, herewith proposed as 'Candidatus Megaira polyxenophila' gen. nov., sp. nov. We found it in association with four different free-living ciliates (Diophrys oligothrix, Euplotes octocarinatus, Paramecium caudatum, and Spirostomum sp., all belonging to Alveolata, Ciliophora); furthermore it was recently observed as intracellular occurring in Carteria cerasiformis and Pleodorina japonica (Chlorophyceae, Chlorophyta). Phylogenetic analyses demonstrated the belonging of the candidate new genus to the family Rickettsiaceae (Alphaproteobacteria, Rickettsiales) as a sister group of the genus Rickettsia. In situ observations revealed the ability of the candidate new species to colonize either nuclear or cytoplasmic compartments, depending on the host organism. The presence of the same bacterial species within different, evolutionary distant, hosts indicates that 'Candidatus Megaira polyxenophila' recently underwent several distinct host shifts, thus suggesting the existence of horizontal transmission pathways. We consider these findings as indicative of an unexpected spread of rickettsial infections in aquatic communities, possibly by means of trophic interactions, and hence propose a new interpretation of the origin and phylogenetic diversification of rickettsial bacteria.}, author = {Schrallhammer, Martina and Ferrantini, Filippo and Vannini, Claudia and Galati, Stefano and Schweikert, Michael and G\"ortz, Hans-Dieter and Verni, Franco and Petroni, Giulio}, doi = {10.1371/journal.pone.0072581}, file = {/home/mike/Zotero/storage/5RUT44MT/Schrallhammer et al. - 2013 - ‘Candidatus Megaira polyxenophila’ gen. nov., sp. .pdf;/home/mike/Zotero/storage/FL9FHAB4/article.html}, issn = {1932-6203}, journal = {PLOS ONE}, month = {08}, number = 8, pages = {e72581}, shorttitle = {`{{Candidatus Megaira}} Polyxenophila' Gen.

  @article{Schrallhammer_EJoP_2012, abstract = {R-bodies are coiled proteinaceous ribbons produced by Paramecium endosymbionts belonging to the genus Caedibacter. These intracellular bacteria confer upon their hosts a phenomenon called the killer trait. It is the ability to kill symbiont-free competitors called sensitives. The R-body is the crucial element of this process, but despite many efforts, the actual role of R-bodies in killing sensitive paramecia is still not satisfactory clarified. The open question is whether the R-body acts as transmitter for a yet unidentified toxin or whether it directly kills sensitive paramecia having intrinsic cytotoxic effects. In the present study, this problem is addressed by heterologous expression of Caedibacter taeniospiralis R-body in Escherichia coli followed by a detailed analysis of its potential intrinsic toxic effect on feeding sensitive Paramecium tetraurelia. Using this approach, we can exclude any eventual effects of additional, unidentified factors produced by C. taeniospiralis and thus observe the impact of the recombinant R-body itself. No cytotoxic effects of recombinant R-bodies were detected following this approach, strengthening the hypothesis that R-bodies act as releasing system for an unidentified C. taeniospiralis toxin.}, author = {Schrallhammer, Martina and Galati, Stefano and Altenbuchner, Josef and Schweikert, Michael and G\"ortz, Hans-Dieter and Petroni, Giulio}, doi = {10.1016/j.ejop.2012.01.008}, file = {/home/mike/Zotero/storage/V6V8BQ35/Schrallhammer et al. - 2012 - Tracing the role of R-bodies in the killer trait .pdf;/home/mike/Zotero/storage/N2NYJ34I/S0932473912000193.html}, issn = {0932-4739}, journal = {European Journal of Protistology}, month = {11}, number = 4, pages = {290-296}, shorttitle = {Tracing the Role of {{R}}-Bodies in the Killer Trait}, title = {Tracing the Role of {{R}}-Bodies in the Killer Trait: {{Absence}} of Toxicity of {{R}}-Body Producing Recombinant {{E}}.

The main goals of this study were to identify which Bacteriastrum species occur in the northern Adriatic Sea and describe their distributions. Bacteriastrum comosum and B. hyalinum f. princeps were rare, while B. delicatulum, B. hyalinum, and B. mediterraneum were frequently present, together with the newly proposed species B. jadranum, described herein. This new species is weakly silicified and is mainly characterized by a large aperture between each cell of the filament. Cells are connected to each other by 8\textendash{}12 setae, which cross at a distance equivalent to the diameters of 2\textendash{}3 cells. There is no difference in the orientation of the setae on the two terminal cells, hence the species is placed in the section Isomorpha. The new species was recorded throughout the study area, in both coastal and offshore waters, with higher cell abundances in the vicinity of the Po River during the September\textendash{}October period.

The Thoracosphaeraceae (Peridiniales) are the only group of the Alveolata that include members with calcareous coccoid stages; this trait is considered apomorphic. Although the coccoid stage apparently is not calcareous, Bysmatrum has been assigned to the Thoracosphaeraceae based on thecal morphology. We tested the monophyly of the Thoracosphaeraceae using large sets of ribosomal RNA sequence data of the Alveolata including the Dinophyceae. Phylogenetic analyses were performed using Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian approaches. The Thoracosphaeraceae were monophyletic, but included also a number of non-calcareous dinophytes (such as Pentapharsodinium and Pfiesteria) and even parasites (such as Duboscquodinium and Tintinnophagus). Bysmatrum had an isolated and uncertain phylogenetic position outside the Thoracosphaeraceae. The phylogenetic relationships among calcareous dinophytes appear complex, and the assumption of the single origin of the potential to produce calcareous structures is challenged.

Two species are notable: Francisella tularensis, the causative organism of tularemia and a putative warfare agent, and Francisella noatunensis, an emerging fish pathogen causing significant losses in wild and farmed fish. Although various aspects of Francisella biology have been intensively studied, their natural reservoir in periods between massive outbreaks remains mysterious. Protists have been suspected to serve as a disguised vector of Francisella and co-culturing attempts demonstrate that some species are able to survive and multiply within protozoan cells. Here, we report the first finding of a natural occurrence of Francisella sp. as a protist endosymbiont. By molecular and morphological approaches, we identified intracellular bacteria localized in a strain of the marine ciliate Euplotes raikovi, isolated from the coast of Adriatic Sea. Phylogenetic analysis placed these endosymbionts within the genus Francisella, in close but distinct association with F. noatunensis. We suggest the establishment of a novel subspecies within F. noatunensis and propose the cytoplasmatic endosymbiont of E. raikovi as ``Candidatus F. noatunensis subsp. endociliophora'' subsp. nov.}, author = {Schrallhammer, Martina and Schweikert, Michael and Vallesi, Adriana and Verni, Franco and Petroni, Giulio}, doi = {10.1007/s00248-010-9772-9}, file = {/home/mike/Zotero/storage/Y4MNA8V6/Schrallhammer et al. - 2011 - Detection of a Novel Subspecies of Emphasis Type=.pdf;/home/mike/Zotero/storage/7IU7B2T5/s00248-010-9772-9.html}, issn = {0095-3628, 1432-184X}, journal = {Microbial Ecology}, language = {en}, month = {02}, number = 2, pages = {455-464}, title = {Detection of a {{Novel Subspecies}} of {{Francisella}} Noatunensis as {{Endosymbiont}} of the {{Ciliate}} {{Euplotes}} Raikovi}, volume = 61, year = 2011 }
