The paper characterizes microeukaryotic biodiversity in the Northern Gulf of Mexico using 18S rRNA gene metabarcoding, revealing environmental drivers of species composition and trophic structure.

The paper measures microbial eukaryote abundances and predation rates at deep-sea hydrothermal vents, showing higher grazing rates under in situ pressure and their role in deep-sea carbon cycling.

The paper introduces EukMetaSanity, a software package for high-throughput gene prediction in eukaryotic genomes, demonstrating reliable predictions for 1,700+ genomes including MAGs.
