A great team effort to get into culture one of the most abundant and ubiquitous microbial eukaryotes Tyrannomonas regina (CRY1). It is widely distributed in freshwater ecosystems across six continents. Genomics reveal a compact genome and the presence of associated giant viruses.
Heterotrophic nanoflagellates in lakes ingest 10–20 bacteria/hour, removing roughly 1/3 of all prokaryotes daily but most remain uncultured and unsequenced. We devised a new cultivation strategy to describe one such predator here 🦖🔬

A pair of scientists has produced a research paper in less than an hour with the help of ChatGPT. The article was fluent and insightful, but researchers say that there are many hurdles to overcome https://t.co/JriWivJFcK
Attending ASLO23 at Palma. If you want to hear about cryptophytes, their global distribution and importance in microbial food webs, please stop by my poster (poster no. 393, abstract no. 5845) and let's discuss on Thursday June 8 #aslo2023#ASLO23
Delighted to share our recently published work in Microbiome. Really happy to be a part of this awesome study on bacterial dynamics in freshwater reservoirs.
ICYMI: Join us for our 1st ISOP Student Meeting on January 31 to hear Alastair Simpson give a talk on “Eukaryote evolution; a story told by free-living protozoa”. There will be time for questions & discussion & networking.

A long time coming but its finally here! Congratulations to @VKavagutti and all the co-authors who made this high-frequency sampling possible!

It's finally here!! Our Method of the Year 2022 is....long-read sequencing! 🎉
Read our (free!) Editorial to learn why we felt the time was right to select this class of powerful technologies as the Method of the Year.

Born #OnThisDay in 1887 was Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan. Though he had very little formal training, his work was substantial, often using methods that were completely novel. In 1918 he became one of the youngest Fellows of the Royal Society. https://t.co/XqvU8okbMK
Stress makes communities more similar @envojournal: https://t.co/0ZOzLQHWSQ
In a chemostat experiment microbial communities become more similar when antibiotics are added and more dissimilar again after stress removal. @GalafassiSilvia@CONICETDialoga@Limn0Lab#Antibiotics
