Genome Sequence Data Reveal Complex and Variable Ploidy in the Amoebozoan Acanthamoeba castellanii.

Genome biology and evolution - 1 Apr 2026

Colp Morgan J, Archibald John M

Abstract excerpt

Acanthamoeba castellanii is a free-living amoeba that is emerging as a model organism for the study of eukaryotic microbiology. This species is one of the most widely studied members of the Amoebozoa and is both an important grazer in soil communities and an opportunistic human pathogen; A. castellanii is thus of evolutionary, ecological, and biomedical significance. Despite its potential as a lab workhorse, the...
