Bacteria of the family Rickettsiaceae have always been largely studied not only for their importance in medical field, but also as model systems evolutionary biology. In fact, they share a recent common ancestor with mitochondria. The most species, belonging to genera Rickettsia and Orientia, are hosted by terrestrial arthropods include many human pathogens. Nevertheless, findings show that large part biodiversity actually resides outside group well-known pathogenic bacteria. Collecting data...
Close reciprocal interactions in symbiotic systems have suggested the holobiont concept, which host and its microbiota are considered as a single entity. Ciliates known for their ability to form associations with prokaryotes. Relationships between partners such vary from mutualism parasitism differ significantly robustness. We assessed viability of ciliate Paramecium multimicronucleatum maintain intranuclear endosymbiont Ca . Trichorickettsia mobilis (Rickettsiaceae) after treatment...
