Free Kinetosomes in Australian Flagellates
An electron microscope study was made of Deltotrichonympha and Koruga, two closely-related hypermastigote flagellates that live in the hindgut of the Australian termite, Mastotermes darwiniensis These symbiotic protozoans have a typical flagellated rostrum and long body flagella. Their "giant centrioles" (centriolar apparatus) are large, fibrillar, and granular bodies which do not resemble typi...
متن کاملFatty acid composition of freshwater heterotrophic flagellates: an experimental study
The fatty acid compositions of 5 freshwater heterotrophic flagellates were studied using laboratory cultures. The flagellates Bodo saltans, Paraphysomonas vestita, Spumella pudica, Polytoma uvella and Chilomonas paramecium were cultured on Synura medium enriched either with Régilait milk powder (MP medium; Régilait, St Martin Roche, France) or with Tabimin dry fish food (DFF medium; Tetra, Mell...
متن کاملFree-living Heterotrophic Flagellates from Freshwater Sites in Tasmania (Australia), a Field Survey
In order to contribute to an understanding of the geographic distribution of free-living freshwater flagellates, we have investigated the diversity of heterotrophic flagellates occurring in a number of freshwater sites in Tasmania (Australia). This community of organisms has not previously been studied in Tasmania, and the isolation of the freshwater habitats from like habitats elsewhere in the...
متن کاملMolecular comparisons of freshwater and marine isolates of the same morphospecies of heterotrophic flagellates.
Heterotrophic flagellates are key components of all ecosystems. Understanding the patterns of biodiversity of these organisms is thus particularly important. Here we analyzed the intraspecific diversity of 10 morphospecies of heterotrophic flagellates comprising representatives of the Apusozoa (2 morphospecies) and Kinetoplastea (8 morphospecies), all belonging to the most common flagellates wi...
متن کاملNegative consequences of glacial turbidity for the survival of freshwater planktonic heterotrophic flagellates
Heterotrophic (phagotrophic) flagellates are key components of planktonic food webs in freshwater and marine ecosystems because they are the main consumers of bacteria. Although they are ubiquitous in aquatic ecosystems, they were numerically undetectable in turbid glacier-fed lakes. Here we show that glacial particles had negative effects on the survival and growth of heterotrophic flagellates...
