The most visible ones were the foundation of the Institute of Molecular Biology and the Institute of Ecology in 2006 (Fig. 1.1). The Institute of Ecology was formed from two sections of the former Institute of Zoology and Limnology and one section of the Institute of Botany while the Institute of Molecular Ecology was a new construction. In compliance with the recommendations of the reviewers, we have been seeking new appointments with a focus on molecular sciences and we installed new research directions. As a consequence of the University Law 2002, the new Faculty of Biology (which was part of the former Faculty of Science) was founded and we implemented new study programs, such as bachelor, master, and PhD, and tried to cope with an ever increasing number of students. Today, the Faculty of Biology consists of five institutes, hosts around 90 researchers (40 of them employed by extramural funds), ~ 40 technicians and administrators, and ~1500 students. 2006 2002 1972 1868 1860 1669 Fig. 1.1 Short history of the Institutes of the Faculty of Biology Evaluation period and due dates The evaluation period encompasses the years from 2006 to 2010, but not all data, for instance regarding inscriptions and graduations, were available by 30th November 2010. The list of publications includes all papers that appeared until 30th November 2010. Staff lists and organi grams of the faculty and the institutes are as of 1st October. Figure 1.2 gives an impression of the changes in personnel between 2006 and 2010 and shows that only six professors have served during the whole evaluation period. 4 Name 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 Alexander Cernusca Christian Schlötterer Sigmar Bortenschlager Cornelius Lütz Kurt Haselwandter Franz Schinner Bernd Pelster Roland Psenner Ulrike Tappeiner Dirk Meyer Birgit Schlick-Steiner Bert Hobmayer Peter Schönswetter Fig. 1.2 Appointment of full professors 2006-2010.

[email protected] Abstract Microbial interactions are crucial for Earth ecosystem function, yet our knowledge about them is limited and has so far mainly existed as scattered records. Here, we have surveyed the literature involving planktonic protist interactions and gathered the information in a manually curated Protist Interaction DAtabase (PIDA). In total, we have registered ~2,500 ecological interactions from ~500 publications, spanning the last 150 years.

  • Pusillus Poseidon's Guide to Protozoa
    Pusillus Poseidon’s guide to PROTOZOA GENERAL NOTES ABOUT PROTOZOANS Protozoa are also called protists. The word “protist” is the more general term and includes all types of single-celled eukaryotes, whereas “protozoa” is more often used to describe the protists that are animal-like (as opposed to plant-like or fungi-like). Protists are measured using units called microns. There are 1000 microns in one millimeter. A millimeter is the smallest unit on a metric ruler and can be estimated with your fingers: The traditional way of classifying protists is by the way they look (morphology), by the way they move (mo- tility), and how and what they eat. This gives us terms such as ciliates, flagellates, ameboids, and all those colors of algae. Recently, the classification system has been overhauled and has become immensely complicated. (Infor- mation about DNA is now the primary consideration for classification, rather than how a creature looks or acts.) If you research these creatures on Wikipedia, you will see this new system being used. Bear in mind, however, that the categories are constantly shifting as we learn more and more about protist DNA. Here is a visual overview that might help you understand the wide range of similarities and differences. Some organisms fit into more than one category and some don’t fit well into any category. Always remember that classification is an artificial construct made by humans. The organisms don’t know anything about it and they don’t care what we think! CILIATES Eats anything smaller than Blepharisma looks slightly pink because it Blepharisma itself, even smaller Bleph- makes a red pigment that senses light (simi- arismas.

The aim of the study was to identify green algal symbionts of P. bursaria originating from distant geographical locations and to answer the question of whether the occurrence of en- dosymbiont taxa was correlated with a specific ciliate syngen (sexually separated sibling group). In a comparative analysis, we investigated 43 P. bursaria symbiont strains based on molecular features. Three DNA fragments were sequenced: two from the nuclear genomes—a fragment of the ITS1-5.8S rDNA-ITS2 region and a fragment of the gene encoding large subunit ribosomal RNA (28S rDNA), Citation: Greczek-Stachura, M.; as well as a fragment of the plastid genome comprising the 30rpl36-50infA genes. The analysis of two Le´snicka,P.Z.; Tarcz, S.; Rautian, M.; Mozd˙ ze´n,K.˙ Genetic Diversity of ribosomal sequences showed the presence of 29 haplotypes (haplotype diversity Hd = 0.98736 for Symbiotic Green Algae of Paramecium ITS1-5.8S rDNA-ITS2 and Hd = 0.908 for 28S rDNA) in the former two regions, and 36 haplotypes 0 0 bursaria Syngens Originating from in the 3 rpl36-5 infA gene fragment (Hd = 0.984).

  • 23.3 Groups of Protists
    Chapter 23 | Protists 639 cysts that are a protective, resting stage. Depending on habitat of the species, the cysts may be particularly resistant to temperature extremes, desiccation, or low pH. This strategy allows certain protists to “wait out” stressors until their environment becomes more favorable for survival or until they are carried (such as by wind, water, or transport on a larger organism) to a different environment, because cysts exhibit virtually no cellular metabolism. Protist life cycles range from simple to extremely elaborate. Certain parasitic protists have complicated life cycles and must infect different host species at different developmental stages to complete their life cycle. Some protists are unicellular in the haploid form and multicellular in the diploid form, a strategy employed by animals. Other protists have multicellular stages in both haploid and diploid forms, a strategy called alternation of generations, analogous to that used by plants. Habitats Nearly all protists exist in some type of aquatic environment, including freshwater and marine environments, damp soil, and even snow. Several protist species are parasites that infect animals or plants. A few protist species live on dead organisms or their wastes, and contribute to their decay. 23.3 | Groups of Protists By the end of this section, you will be able to do the following: • Describe representative protist organisms from each of the six presently recognized supergroups of eukaryotes • Identify the evolutionary relationships of plants, animals, and fungi within the six presently recognized supergroups of eukaryotes • Identify defining features of protists in each of the six supergroups of eukaryotes. In the span of several decades, the Kingdom Protista has been disassembled because sequence analyses have revealed new genetic (and therefore evolutionary) relationships among these eukaryotes.

Boreal Env. Res. 16: 79–90. Knowledge about river ecosystems in the east European lowlands is scattered, however it is strongly needed for water management and conservation issues. The aim of the present study was to provide information on biotic key elements and their responses to major environmental gradients in a European lowland river. During the summers of 2006 and 2007, 124 diatom and 128 macroinvertebrate species were recorded in a pristine brown- water river, the Tudovka, a tributary of the Volga River. The canonical correspondence analysis showed that conductivity, pH and colour were significant environmental variables in explaining diatom data, while macroinvertebrate distribution was most related to dis- tance from source (rkm). The eigenvalues of the first two CCA axes were significant (p < 0.05) for diatoms and invertebrates. However, the diatom analysis explained more of the taxonomic variation (41.7% vs.

In most animal species, they are involved in metal homeostasis and detoxification, and provide protection from oxidative stress. Gastropod MTs are highly diversified, exhibiting unique features and adaptations like metal specificity and multiplications of their metal binding domains. Here, we show that the MT gene of Biomphalaria glabrata, one of the largest MT genes identified so far, is composed in a unique way. The encoding for an MT protein has a three-domain structure and a C-terminal, Cys-rich extension. Using a bioinformatic approach involving structural and in silico analysis of putative transcription factor binding sites (TFBs), we found that this MT gene consists of five exons and four introns. It exhibits a regulatory promoter region containing three metal-responsive elements (MREs) and several TFBs with putative involvement in environmental stress response, and regulation of gene expression.
