The paper identifies a new family of rhodopsin channels in apusomonads that absorb ultraviolet to blue light and function as anion-selective channels involved in photoavoidance.

This study investigates the infection strategies of the marine diatom parasite Pirsonia using genomic and transcriptomic analyses, revealing its reliance on actin-based phagocytosis and surface proteins.

This paper uses phylogenomic analyses of flagellated protists to revise the eukaryotic tree of life, supporting monophyly of Opimoda and inferring ancestral traits.

This study identifies an immune-like glycan-sensing/processing network in Paramecium bursaria that regulates its algal endosymbionts through horizontal gene transfers.

The paper describes two new mantamonad species and provides transcriptomic and genomic data for one, offering insights into the CRuMs supergroup's evolutionary history.
