Single-cell genomics reveals complex microbial and viral associations in ciliates and testate amoebae - Nature Communications
Protist microbiomes are poorly understood. Here, the authors analysed single protist cells to profile their microbiomes and viromes showing that these tiny eukaryotes serve as environmental hubs for hidden bacterial symbionts and diverse giant viruses.
