Phil Gibson for helping me become a better scientist and better educator. I would also like to thank my committee members Dr. Anne K. Dunn, Dr. K. David Hambright, and Dr. J.P. Masly for providing valuable inputs that lead me to carefully consider my research questions. I would also like to thank Dr. J.P. Masly for the opportunity to coauthor a book chapter on the speciation of diatoms. It is still such a privilege that you believed in me and my crazy diatom ideas to form a concise chapter in addition to learn your style of writing has been a benefit to my professional development. I’m also thankful for my first undergraduate research mentor, Dr. Miriam Steinitz-Kannan, now retired from Northern Kentucky University, who was the first to show the amazing wonders of pond scum. Who knew that studying diatoms and algae as an undergraduate would lead me all the way to a Ph.D. -

Competition for inorganic nutrients has been regarded as one of the drivers affecting the productivity of the eutrophied coastal Baltic Sea. Yet, it is unknown at the molecular expression level how resources are competed for, by phytoplankton and bacteria, and what impact this competition has on the community composition. Here we use metatranscriptomics and amplicon sequencing and compare known metabolic pathways of both phytoplankton and bacteria co-occurring during a summer bloom in the archipelago of Åland in the Baltic Sea to examine phytoplankton bacteria resource partitioning. -

Mitochondrial SSU-rDNA has been used recently to infer phylogenetic relationships among a few ciliates. Here, this locus is compared with nuclear SSU-rDNA for uncovering the deepest nodes in the ciliate tree of life using broad taxon sampling. Nuclear and mitochondrial SSU-rDNA reveal the same relationships for nodes well-supported in previously-published nuclear SSU-rDNA studies, al- though support for many nodes in the mitochondrial SSU-rDNA tree are low. Mitochondrial SSU-rDNA infers a monophyletic Colpodea with high node support only from Bayesian inference, and in the concatenated tree (nuclear plus mitochondrial SSU-rDNA) monophyly of the Colpodea is supported with moderate to high node support from maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference. In the monophyletic Phyllopharyngea, the Suctoria is inferred to be sister to the Cyrtophora in the mitochondrial, nuclear, and concatenated SSU-rDNA trees with moderate to high node support from maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference. Together these data point to the power of adding mitochondrial SSU-rDNA as a standard locus for ciliate molecular phylogenetic inferences. -

STRUCTURE, FUNCTION AND EVOLUTION OF PHOSPHOPROTEIN P0 AND ITS UNIQUE INSERT IN TETRAHYMENA THERMOPHILA BY GIOVANNI PAGANO A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE IN BIOLOGICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND 2014 MASTER OF SCIENCE OF GIOVANNI PAGANO APPROVED: Thesis Committee: Major Professor Linda A. Hufnagel Lenore M. Martin Roberta King Nasser H. Zawia DEAN OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND 2014 ABSTRACT Phosphoprotein P0 is a highly conserved ribosomal protein that forms the central scaffold of the large ribosomal subunit’s “stalk complex”, which is necessary for recruiting protein elongation factors to the ribosome. Evidence in the literature suggests that P0 may be involved in diseases such as malaria and systemic lupus erythematosus. We are interested in the possibility that the P0 of the “ciliated protozoa” Tetrahymena thermophila may be useful as a model system for vaccine research and drug development. -

GBE A Phylogenomic Approach to Clarifying the Relationship of Mesodinium within the Ciliophora: A Case Study in the Complexity of Mixed-Species Transcriptome Analyses Erica Lasek-Nesselquist1,* and Matthew D. Johnson2 1New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH), Wadsworth Center, Albany, New York Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/gbe/article-abstract/11/11/3218/5610072 by guest on 05 February 2020 2Biology, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Woods Hole, Massachusetts *Corresponding author: E-mail: [email protected]. Accepted: October 29, 2019 Data deposition: This project has been deposited in the NCBI SRA database under accessions PRJNA560206 (Mesodinium rubrum and Geminigera cryophila), PRJNA560220 (Mesodinium chamaeleon), and PRJNA560227 (Mesodinium major). All phylogenies and alignments in- cluded in this study have been deposited in Dryad: 10.5061/dryad.zw3r22848. Abstract Recent high-throughput sequencing endeavors have yielded multigene/protein phylogenies that confidently resolve several inter- and intra-class relationships within the phylum Ciliophora. We leverage the massive sequencing efforts from the Marine Microbial Eukaryote Transcriptome Sequencing Project, other SRA submissions, and available genome data with our own sequencing efforts to determine the phylogenetic position of Mesodinium and to generate the most taxonomically rich phylogenomic ciliate tree to date. Regardless of the data mining strategy, the multiprotein data set, or the molecular models of evolution employed, we consistently recovered the same well-supported relationships among ciliate classes, confirming many of the higher-level relationships previously identified. Mesodinium always formed a monophyletic group with members of the Litostomatea, with mixotrophic species of Mesodinium—M. rubrum, M. major,andM. chamaeleon—being more closely related to each other than to the heterotrophic member, M. -
Molecular Phylogenetic Analysis of Class Colpodea (Phylum Ciliophora) Using Broad Taxon Sampling

Previous analyses of the class using the small-subunit rDNA are based on sparse taxon sampling, and are therefore of limited use in comparisons with morphologically-based classifications. Taxon sampling is increased here to include all orders within the class, and more species within previously sampled orders and in the species rich genus Colpoda. Results indicate that the Colpodea may be paraphyletic, although there is no support for deep nodes. The orders Bursariomorphida, Grossglockneriida, and Sorogenida are monophyletic. The orders Bryometopida, Colpodida, and Cyrtolophosidida, and the genus Colpoda, are not monophy- letic. Although congruent in many aspects, the conflict between some nodes on this single gene genealogy and morphology-based tax- onomy suggests the need for additional markers as well as a reassessment of the Colpodea taxonomy.
