This project explores the symbiotic relationships between aquatic ciliates and nitrogen-fixing bacteria to understand their ecological roles. It aims to investigate how these interactions contribute to host diversification and the nitrogen cycle in aquatic environments.
During the history of the planet Earth, acquisition of symbiont-encoded metabolic pathways has allowed hosts to exploit new ecological niches. A mechanistic understanding of the interactions between host and symbionts as well as knowledge about the role of symbionts in the functional diversification and species formation in hosts is, however, currently lacking.
It is well known that aquatic ciliates may harbor phototrophic algae or methanogenic Archaea as symbionts.
Moreover, I recently found ni…
