“Missing” protists: a molecular prospective (2008, background): “…observations show that even organisms that are essentially identical morphologically may be phylogenetically very diVerent (Boenigk et al. 2005; Katz et al. 2005, 2006; Rodriguez et al. 2005; Slapeta et al. 2006a, b) and/or ecologically quite distinct (see for example Nanney et al. 1998;…”
Spatial scaling of microbial biodiversity. (2006, background): “Recent studies indicate that some common flagellate [24] and ciliate [ 54 ] morphospecies, when examined using molecular techniques, are composed of several distinct genetic species, suggesting that more sensitive and less subjective taxonomic criteria (e.g.”
Diversity and geographic distribution of ciliates (Protista: Ciliophora) (2008, methodology): “In only a few cases have widely-sampled isolates of ciliate morphospecies been shown to lack substantial genetic diversity, for instance, Laboea strobila (Katz et al. 2005).”
Microbial oceanography of the dark ocean's pelagic realm (2009, background): “Although a number of protistan species can be determined microscopically because of specific morphological features such as ciliates (Foissner 1998; Katz et al. 2005), picoeukaryotes mostly lack diagnostic features to distinguish species under the microscope.”
A statistical approach to estimate soil ciliate diversity and distribution based on data from five continents (2006, methodology): “This has been shown by genetic and molecular studies (Dini and Nyberg 1993, Nanney et al. 1998, Katz et al. 2005, Scheckenbach et al. 2005).”
Molecular and morphological methods for identifying plankton: what makes a successful marriage? (2009, background): “An exception in some cases can be provided by the ciliates, whose naturally highly amplified genome makes it possible to pick one or a few individuals from a natural population and obtain DNA sequences (Katz et al., 2005).”
No biogeographical pattern for a root-associated fungal species complex (2011, background): “As a consequence, fungi (Taylor et al., 2006), bacteria (Papke et al., 2003; Bell et al., 2005) and protists (Katz et al., 2005; Slapeta et al., 2005) previously believed to be cosmopolitan were redefined as assemblages of species with restricted biogeographical distributions and only few…”
Distribution and diversity of aquatic protists: an evolutionary and ecological perspective (2008, background): “…(Boenigk et al. 2005, 2006), amoebae (Wylezich et al. 2002; Smith and Wilkinson 2007), foraminifera (Darling et al. 1999, 2000), and ciliates (Katz et al. 2005; Barth et al. 2006; Finlay et al. 2006; Gächter and Weisse 2006; Weisse 2006b; Weisse and Rammer 2006) implies that the…”
