Low evolutionary diversification in a widespread and abundant uncultured protist (MAST-4).

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 May 2012

Rodríguez-Martínez Raquel, Rocap Gabrielle, Logares Ramiro, Romac Sarah, Massana Ramon

Abstract excerpt

Recent culture-independent studies of marine planktonic protists have unveiled a large diversity at all phylogenetic scales and the existence of novel groups. MAST-4 represents one of these novel uncultured lineages, and it is composed of small (~2 μm) bacterivorous eukaryotes that are widely distributed in marine systems. MAST-4 accounts for a significant fraction of the marine heterotrophic flagellates at the...
