This paper describes a new thermophilic cyanobacterium, Gloeomargarita ahousahtiae, isolated from a hot spring, characterized by intracellular carbonate inclusions and distinct phenotypic features.

The paper characterizes four new ancyromonad genera and updates their taxonomy using morphology, behavior, and molecular phylogenetic analyses.

This study shows that the euglenozoan Rapaza viridis uses kleptoplasts from Tetraselmis sp. for temporary photosynthesis, with evidence of horizontal gene transfer and shared mechanisms with Euglenophyceae.

The paper describes new apusomonad species and genera, updates their taxonomy, and provides insights into their evolutionary history and morphology.

This paper describes a new lineage of non-photosynthetic green algae with exceptionally large and repeat-rich organellar genomes, providing insights into organellar genome evolution.
