Eating and being eaten is a normal process in nature. These predator–prey dynamics help to stabilize ecosystems. It ensures that individual species do not become too abundant, controls their ...

Scientists testing a new method of sequencing single cells have unexpectedly changed our understanding of the rules of genetics. The genome of a protist has revealed a seemingly unique divergence in ...

We used CODAP (the Collaborative Online Data Analysis Platform) to allow students to easily explore patterns in protist abundance and diversity in Dry Valleys lakes. Dr. Morgan-Kiss and MCM PhD ...

Researchers studied in detail the strange protist Meteora sporadica, which swings its two lateral arms back and forth. The results of the study indicated that M. sporadica has a complex cytoskeleton ...
