Soil protist diversity in the Swiss western Alps is better predicted by topo-climatic than by edaphic variables

C. V. W. Seppey, O. Broennimann, A. Buri, E. Yashiro, E. Pinto-Figueroa, D. Singer, Q. Blandenier, E. A. D. Mitchell, H. Niculita Hirzel, A. Guisan, E. Lara

The paper compares topo-climatic and edaphic variables in predicting soil protist diversity in the Swiss western Alps, finding topo-climatic variables generally have better predictive power.

Diversity of photosynthetic picoeukaryotes in eutrophic shallow lakes as assessed by combining flow cytometry cell-sorting and high throughput sequencing

S. Metz, A. Lopes dos Santos, M. C. Berman, E. Bigeard, M. Licursi, F. Not, E. Lara, F. Unrein

The paper assesses photosynthetic picoeukaryote diversity in eutrophic shallow lakes using flow cytometry and high-throughput sequencing, finding higher diversity in sorted samples than in filtered plankton.

Soil Protists in Three Neotropical Rainforests are Hyperdiverse and Dominated by Parasites

F. Mahe, C. de Vargas, D. Bass, L. Czech, A. Stamatakis, E. Lara, D. Singer, J. Mayor, J. Bunge, S. Sernaker, T. Siemensmeyer, I. Trautmann, S. Romac, C. Berney, A. Kozlov, , M. Dunthorn

The paper investigates protist diversity in Neotropical rainforest soils, finding them hyperdiverse and dominated by parasitic Apicomplexa, which may influence animal diversity.
