My students got to see some really good paramecium in their samples today, but this view of a contractile vacuole stole the show. 😍 #ScienceTeachers #science #microbiology #paramecium #microscope #microbe #singlecellws
#MICROBE
The #ocean’s most abundant #microbe is near its breaking point
Tiny ocean microbes called #Prochlorococcus, once thought to be #climate survivors, may struggle as seas warm. These #cyanobacteria drive 5% of Earth’s #photosynthesis and underpin much of the marine #food web. A decade of research shows they thrive only within a narrow #temperature range, and warming oceans could slash their #populations by up to 50% in tropical waters.

#Microbe with bizarrely tiny #genome may be evolving into a #virus
The newly discovered microbe provisionally known as #Sukunaarchaeum isn’t a virus. But like viruses, it seemingly has one purpose: to make more of itself. Most of Sukunaarchaeum’s mere 189 protein-coding genes are focused on replicating its own genome; it must steal everything else it needs from its host Citharistes regius, a dinoflagellate.

World-leading scientists have called for a halt on research to create “mirror life” microbes amid concerns that the synthetic organisms would present an “unprecedented risk” to life on Earth.
The #Roscoff Culture Collection 🇨🇵 of #marine #microorganisms 🌊 🦠 is seeking a #postdoc to work on ex situ microbiome interactions (EU projects #MICROBE and #BlueRemediomics 🇪🇺).
One objective is to define synthetic #microbiomes to promote the growth of selected #microeukaryotes (#microalgae, saprotrophs) and for optimal production of #metabolites of interest.
