• Acquired phototrophy in aquatic protists (2009, background): “While temperate strains of M. rubra can ingest up to 9 cryptophyte cells per day, such ingestion rates do not further enhance growth rates (Yih et al. 2004, Hansen & Fenchel 2006).”
• Role of feeding in growth and photophysiology of Myrionecta rubra (2005, background): “Although feeding has been shown to greatly enhance growth rates of M. rubra (Gustafson et al. 2000, Yih et al. 2004), it remains unclear as to how long M. rubra is able to grow or persist without ingesting cryptophyte prey or how its photophysiology is related to feeding and starvation.”
• The bloom-forming ciliate Mesodinium rubrum harbours a single permanent endosymbiont (2006, background): “Recently, Yih et al. (2004) provided data on ingestion and growth rates of M. rubrum .”
• First successful culture of the marine dinoflagellate Dinophysis acuminata (2006, methodology): “…under continuous light (60 µmol photons m–2 s–1) with addition of the marine ciliate Myrionecta rubra as the prey species every 2 to 3 d. Cultures of M. rubra (strain MR-MAL01) were grown using the cryptophyte Teleaulax sp. (strain CR-MAL01) as prey, as described in detail by Yih et al. (2004).”
• SEQUESTRATION, PERFORMANCE, AND FUNCTIONAL CONTROL OF CRYPTOPHYTE PLASTIDS IN THE CILIATE MYRIONECTA RUBRA (CILIOPHORA) 1 (2006, background): “42, 1235–1246 (2006) r 2006 by the Phycological Society of America DOI: 10.1111/j.1529-8817.2006.00275.x budgets for M. rubra suggest that ingested prey C accounts for negligible C growth requirements compared with photosynthesis (Yih et al. 2004, Johnson and Stoecker 2005).”
