Testate Amoebae from South Vietnam Waterbodies with the Description of New Species Difflugia Vietnamicasp
Acta Protozool.

Hoan Q. TRANa, Yuri A. MAZEIb, c a Vietnamese-Russian Tropical Center, 63 Nguyen Van Huyen, Nghia Do, Cau Giay, Ha Noi, Vietnam b Department of Hydrobiology, Lomonosov Moscow State University, Moscow, Russia c Department of Zoology and Ecology, Penza State University, Penza, Russia Abstract. Testate amoebae in Vietnam are still poorly investigated. We studied species composition of testate amoebae in 47 waterbodies of South Vietnam provinces including natural lakes, reservoirs, wetlands, rivers, and irrigation channels. A total of 109 species and subspe- cies belonging to 16 genera, 9 families were identified from 191 samples. Thirty-five species and subspecies were observed in Vietnam for the first time. New speciesDifflugia vietnamica sp. nov. is described. The most species-rich genera are Difflugia (46 taxa), Arcella (25) and Centropyxis (14). Centropyxis aculeata was the most common species (observed in 68.1% samples). Centropyxis aerophila sphagniсola, Arcella discoides, Difflugia schurmanni and Lesquereusia modesta were characterised by a frequency of occurrence >20%. Other spe- cies were rarer. The species accumulation curve based on the entire dataset of this work was unsaturated and well fitted by equation S = 19.46N0.33. Species richness per sample in natural lakes and wetlands were significantly higher than that of rivers (p < 0.001). The result of the Spearman rank test shows weak or statistically insignificant relationships between species richness and water temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, and electrical conductivity. -

Zygote gene expression and plasmodial development in Didymium iridis A Thesis presented in Partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Biology By Sean Schaefer 2019 Advisor: Dr. Margaret Silliker Department of Biological Sciences College of Liberal Arts and Sciences DePaul University Chicago, IL Abstract: Didymium iridis is a cosmopolitan species of plasmodial slime mold consisting of two distinct life stages. Haploid amoebae and diploid plasmodia feed on microscopic organisms such as bacteria and fungi through phagocytosis. Sexually compatible haploid amoebae act as gametes which when fused embark on an irreversible developmental change resulting in a diploid zygote. The zygote can undergo closed mitosis resulting in a multinucleated plasmodium. Little is known about changes in gene expression during this developmental transition. Our principal goal in this study was to provide a comprehensive list of genes likely to be involved in plasmodial development. -

A First Contribution to the Knowledge of Mycetozoa from Aveyron (France)
Carnets natures, 2021, vol. 8 : 67-81 A First Contribution to the knowledge of Mycetozoa from Aveyron (France) Jonathan Cazabonne¹, Michel Ferrières² et Jean-Louis Menos³ Abstract A first official taxonomic checklist of myxomycetes from the French department Aveyron is presented. As the result of data collected by the Mycological and Botanical Association of Aveyron (AMBA), literature and online research, a total of 21 species representing 14 genera, 7 families and 5 orders, were recorded. The following information for each taxon was reported: Latin name, author(s), Basionym, locality (if known) and record sources. Macrophotographs of some new records are also appended. This work is a contribution to the knowledge of myxomycetes of Aveyron, which will eventually be integrated into a national checklist project of French myxomycetes. Key words: Biodiversity, inventory, taxonomy, Myxomycetes, Occitanie.

9B Taxonomy to Genus
Fungus and Lichen Genera in the NEMF Database Taxonomic hierarchy: phyllum > class (-etes) > order (-ales) > family (-ceae) > genus. Total number of genera in the database: 526 Anamorphic fungi (see p. 4), which are disseminated by propagules not formed from cells where meiosis has occurred, are presently not grouped by class, order, etc. Most propagules can be referred to as "conidia," but some are derived from unspecialized vegetative mycelium. A significant number are correlated with fungal states that produce spores derived from cells where meiosis has, or is assumed to have, occurred. These are, where known, members of the ascomycetes or basidiomycetes. However, in many cases, they are still undescribed, unrecognized or poorly known. (Explanation paraphrased from "Dictionary of the Fungi, 9th Edition.") Principal authority for this taxonomy is the Dictionary of the Fungi and its online database, www.indexfungorum.org. For lichens, see Lecanoromycetes on p. 3.

Phylogeny of Flabellulidae (Amoebozoa: Leptomyxida) Inferred
FOLIA PARASITOLOGICA 55: 256–264, 2008 Phylogeny of Flabellulidae (Amoebozoa: Leptomyxida) inferred from SSU rDNA sequences of the type strain of Flabellula citata Schaeffer, 1926 and newly isolated strains of marine amoebae Iva Dyková1,2, Ivan Fiala1,2, Hana Pecková1 and Helena Dvořáková1 1Institute of Parasitology, Biology Centre of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, Branišovská 31, 370 05 České Budějovice, Czech Republic; 2Faculty of Science, University of South Bohemia, Branišovská 31, 370 05 České Budějovice, Czech Republic Key words: Amoebozoa, Leptomyxida, Flabellulidae, Flabellula citata, SSU rDNA phylogeny Abstract. New strains of non-vannellid flattened amoebae isolated from fish, an invertebrate and the marine environment were studied together with Flabellula citata Schaeffer, 1926 selected by morphology as a reference strain. The study revealed a pau- city of features distinguishing individual strains at the generic level, but clearly evidenced mutual phylogenetic relationships within the assemblage of strains as well as their affiliation to the Leptomyxida. In this study, the SSU rDNA dataset of lepto- myxids was expanded and a new branching pattern was presented within this lineage of Amoebozoa. Sequences of three newly introduced strains clustered in close relationship with the type strain of F. citata, the type species of the genus. Three strains, including one resembling Flamella sp., were positioned within a sister-group containing Paraflabellula spp. Results of phyloge- netic analysis confirmed doubts of previous authors regarding generic assignment of several Rhizamoeba and Ripidomyxa strains. Naked amoebae with fan-shaped trophozoites flat- In phylogenetic analyses based on SSU rDNA se- tened to a substrate were described in the early period of quences, two representatives of Flabellulidae, P. -

Protein secretion and encystation in Acanthamoeba Alvaro de Obeso Fernández del Valle Doctor of Philosophy The University of Edinburgh 2018 Abstract Free-living amoebae (FLA) are protists of ubiquitous distribution characterised by their changing morphology and their crawling movements. They have no common phylogenetic origin but can be found in most protist evolutionary branches. Acanthamoeba is a common FLA that can be found worldwide and is capable of infecting humans. The main disease is a life altering infection of the cornea named Acanthamoeba keratitis. Additionally, Acanthamoeba has a close relationship to bacteria. Acanthamoeba feeds on bacteria. At the same time, some bacteria have adapted to survive inside Acanthamoeba and use it as transport or protection to increase survival. When conditions are adverse, Acanthamoeba is capable of differentiating into a protective cyst.
