  • Protist Phylogeny and the High-Level Classification of Protozoa
    Europ. J. Protistol. 39, 338–348 (2003) © Urban & Fischer Verlag http://www.urbanfischer.de/journals/ejp Protist phylogeny and the high-level classification of Protozoa Thomas Cavalier-Smith Department of Zoology, University of Oxford, South Parks Road, Oxford, OX1 3PS, UK; E-mail: [email protected] Received 1 September 2003; 29 September 2003. Accepted: 29 September 2003 Protist large-scale phylogeny is briefly reviewed and a revised higher classification of the kingdom Pro- tozoa into 11 phyla presented. Complementary gene fusions reveal a fundamental bifurcation among eu- karyotes between two major clades: the ancestrally uniciliate (often unicentriolar) unikonts and the an- cestrally biciliate bikonts, which undergo ciliary transformation by converting a younger anterior cilium into a dissimilar older posterior cilium. Unikonts comprise the ancestrally unikont protozoan phylum Amoebozoa and the opisthokonts (kingdom Animalia, phylum Choanozoa, their sisters or ancestors; and kingdom Fungi). They share a derived triple-gene fusion, absent from bikonts. Bikonts contrastingly share a derived gene fusion between dihydrofolate reductase and thymidylate synthase and include plants and all other protists, comprising the protozoan infrakingdoms Rhizaria [phyla Cercozoa and Re- taria (Radiozoa, Foraminifera)] and Excavata (phyla Loukozoa, Metamonada, Euglenozoa, Percolozoa), plus the kingdom Plantae [Viridaeplantae, Rhodophyta (sisters); Glaucophyta], the chromalveolate clade, and the protozoan phylum Apusozoa (Thecomonadea, Diphylleida). Chromalveolates comprise kingdom Chromista (Cryptista, Heterokonta, Haptophyta) and the protozoan infrakingdom Alveolata [phyla Cilio- phora and Miozoa (= Protalveolata, Dinozoa, Apicomplexa)], which diverged from a common ancestor that enslaved a red alga and evolved novel plastid protein-targeting machinery via the host rough ER and the enslaved algal plasma membrane (periplastid membrane).

  • The Principle of Counter-Directional Morphological Evolution and Its Significance for Construction the Megasystem of Protists and Other Eukaryotes
    Protistology 2 (1), 6–14 (2001) Protistology April, 2001 The principle of counter-directional morphological evolution and its significance for construction the megasystem of protists and other eukaryotes Lev N. Seravin Biological Research Institute of St. Petersburg State University, St. Petersburg, Russia Summary Summing up, the following conclusions can be made. 1. Evolution of living systems follows the principle (law) of counter-directional morphological evolution, according to which both gradation and degradation of organisms can take place. 2. Combination of progressive and regressive changes in the structure of living creatures leads to the appearance of new taxa of any rank, including very high one (class, phylum, etc.). 3. In different groups of living organisms progressive and regressive morphological changes or their combination can result in the appearance of very similar but not identical taxa (e.g. sister taxa). The law of irreversibility of evolution should be substituted by a broader and more accurate law. It can be called the law of non-identity of similar structural transformations in different taxa of living organisms. Key words: morphological evolution, progressive and regressive evolution, Dollo’s law To construct a natural system of protists the role of Smith’s opinion, are always absent in the true Archezoa. not only progressive but also regressive morphological Thus only three phyla remained in this superkingdom: changes taking place in the process of those organisms’ Archamoeba, Metamonada and Microsporidia – unicellu- evolution should be taken into account. The validity of the lar eukaryotes which, in Cavalier-Smith’s opinion, are above statement can be conveniently demonstrated when initially devoid of mitochondria, chloroplasts, dictyosomes, considering changes upon the megasystem in the works of and any kind of microbodies.

  • Protozoos Flagelados
    PROTOZOOS FLAGELADOS Los flagelados (Figuras 1 y 2) constituyen un grupo heterogéneo de protozoos, con propiedades morfológicas variables pero caracterizados por la presencia de uno o más flagelos que dotan de movilidad al organismo. Ultraestructuralmente presentan las cualidades típicas de las células eucariotas (Figura 2). La mayoría son uninucleados. Algunas estructuras son muy típicas de este grupo como la membrana ondulante (estructura membranosa que recorre y envuelve el cuerpo), la costa (engrosamiento que se observa en la base de la membrana ondulante), el axostilo (bastoncillo central de sostén), el pelta (orgánulo del que parte el axostilo), el capítulo (engrosamiento anterior del axostilo) o el cuerpo parabasal (orgánulo del que parte el flagelo). Algunos flagelados presentan un orgánulo, situado en la base de implantación del flagelo, formado a partir de mitocondrias modificadas denominado cinetoplasto que es importante en la clasificación. Figura 1: estructura celular de un protozoo flagelado Los flagelados sin cinetoplasto tienen un ciclo biológico simple con fases de quiste y trofozoito (Giardia intestinalis) o únicamente de trofozoito (Trichomonas vaginalis, Dientamoeba fragilis) y se reproducen asexualmente por fisión binaria longitudinal. Suelen tener varios flagelos. Entre los de interés en patología humana su hábitat es el tracto gastrointestinal (Giardia intestinales, Dientamoeba fragilis) o urogenital (Trichomonas vaginalis). Los flagelados con cinetoplasto – cinetoplástidos- poseen ciclos biológicos más complejos en los que participan huéspedes vertebrados e invertebrados (insectos hematófagos). A lo largo de este ciclo muestran grandes variaciones morfológicas: tripomastigote, promastigote, epimastigote y amastigote dependientes del género. También se reproducen asexualmente por fisión binaria. Presentan sólo un flagelo. En patología humana son importantes Trypanosoma spp.

    DISSERTATION A STUDY OF FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH GIARDIA AND CRYPTOSPORIDIUM INFECTIONS IN HUMANS, DOGS AND CATS IN THE USA Submitted by Hanaa Thigeel Department of Clinical Sciences In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Fall 2016 Doctoral Committee: Advisor: Michael Lappin Co-Advisor: Francisco Olea-Popelka David Twedt Doreene Hyatt Copyright by Hanaa Thigeel 2016 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT A STUDY OF FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH GIARDIA AND CRYPTOSPORIDIUM INFECTIONS IN HUMANS, DOGS AND CATS IN THE USA Giardia spp. and Cryptosporidium spp. are two of the leading causal agents of parasitic diarrhea in humans, dogs and cats. The two pathogens contain both host-adapted and zoonotic strains and dogs and cats can harbor both strains. There is critical need to understand factors potentially associated with the risk and prevalence of infection due to Giardia spp. and Cryptosporidium spp. in dogs, cats and humans. This will ultimately aid in disease management and control. Furthermore, molecular characterization of the human, dog or cat isolates may identify zoonotic genotypes and may provide further information concerning the transmission routes between humans, dogs and cats. In Chapter 1, a review of literature regarding Giardia duodenalis and Cryptosporidium spp. in humans and companion animals (dogs and cats) was conducted. The review involves a brief description of the two pathogens’ current taxonomy, epidemiology, and diagnostic methods. Chapter 2 presents a retrospective study designed to analyze results from dog and cat polymerase chain reaction (PCR) panels from the commercial laboratory, ANTECH Diagnostics. The main purpose of this study was to evaluate associations between the probability of testing positive to Giardia spp.

DNA isolated from the guts of worker termites in a colony of R. speratus was amplified using archaea- specific primers and cloned, and partial 16S rRNA gene sequences were obtained. Archaeal PCR clones obtained from the guts of xylophagous insects in this and previous works formed four subgroups within the Methano- brevibacter branch of a phylogenetic tree; the sequences of the clones obtained in this report belonged to sub- groups, designated XSAT1A and XSAT1D. Using a probe specific to each of the subgroups, 50 and 10 endo- symbiotic Methanobrevibacter cells per protist respectively were detected with a probe specific to the subgroup XSAT1A by fluorescent in situ hybridization analysis in D. parva and Microjoenia. There was no observed hybridization to the endosymbiont with other subtype-specific probes including XSAT1D. Based on these results, endosymbionts in D.
