Researchers from the Earlham Institute, in collaboration with the Department of Biology at the University of Oxford, have discovered three previously unrecognized lineages of the protist Bodo, each ...
Just as the human body serves as a habitat for bacteria and other microbes, diverse, tiny organisms known as protists host their own microbiomes. In new research published this week in Cell Host & ...

Protists, single-celled eukaryotic organisms encompassing unicellular algae and protozoans, inhabit aquatic environments. Functioning as primary producers and oxygen generators, they play crucial ...
Protists are outcasts of sorts, a diverse, catch-all group of mostly single-celled organisms that have features that disqualify them from the other life groups: animals, plants, fungi, bacteria, and ...
Symbiosis has been critical to evolution. We know that mitochondria, critical organelles that generate energy in the cell of every animal, are originally derived from a microbe that entered another ...
