This study identifies the phylogenetic position of Brandtodinium nutricula and shows its free-living abundance in the ocean, challenging previous assumptions about its symbiotic exclusivity.

This study sequenced the transcriptome of Pseudotrichomonas keilini, a free-living parabasalid, and compared its genome to parasitic relatives to understand evolutionary adaptations to anaerobic lifestyles.

The paper presents mitochondrial genomes of Foraminifera and Radiolaria, revealing reduced gene content and a non-canonical genetic code in retarian mitogenomes.
