LABORATORY OF DIVERSITY AND EVOLUTION OF ANAEROBIC PROTISTS
We study the diversity and evolution of anaerobic protists at Faculty of Science, Charles University PragueJoined November 2023
New preprint from our lab: “Rare microbial relict sheds light on an ancient eukaryotic supergroup” by Marek Valt et al. introduces Solarion arienae, an interesting protist from newly characterized supergroup.

Protodays2024 are almost over and as every year full of great talks and posters! Happy to add some input from our research including talks by @polakova_kate, @MajdaPavlatova , Marek Valt and Matyáš Soviš #Protodays#Protodays2024
Finishing the first day of #Protodays with a poster session including posters of Aneta and Martina from our lab!
Thanks to the organizers for making a great conference👏👏👏 #Protodays2024
53rd Jírovec´s Protozoological Days just started! Great opening symposium about viruses in protistology sponsored by @protistologists including talks by @dinokaryon, Christopher Bellas, Pavel Plevka, Matthias Fischer, and Anna Koslová. Stay tuned! #Protodays#Protodays2024
Check out some stunning Czech ciliates in our new paper about a scuticociliate species Loxocephalus luridus.
Finally adding some molecular data for the type genus of the problematic order Loxocephalida!

Happy to see some of our work in the list of the most interesting newly described #microbial#eukaryotes of 2023! Thanks Lukáš V.F Novák for mentioning many of our beloved #anaerobic#protists.
Let´s see what new discoveries the upcoming year will bring!
#Protists double animal's biomass on earth. Despite their importance, our knowledge of these organisms is greatly hampered by the limited number of stable laboratory cultures. Read our call to action "The protist cultural renaissance" in @TrendsMicrobiolsciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Anaeramoeba are really amazing protists. In the latest paper "Massive intein content in Anaeramoeba reveals aspects of intein mobility in eukaryotes" with @Ivan_Cepicka as coauthor you can read about the most intein-rich eukaryotic genomes so far.
