An ancestral mitochondrial DNA resembling a eubacterial genome in miniature
- B. F. Lang, G. Burger, +6 authors M. Gray
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature
- 29 May 1997
Mitochondria, organelles specialized in energy conservation reactions in eukaryotic cells, have evolved from eubacteria-like endo-symbionts 1–3 whose closest known relatives are the rickettsial group… Expand
A molecular reassessment of the Leptomyxid amoebae.
- L. A. Amaral Zettler, T. Nerad, +4 authors M. Sogin
- Biology, Medicine
- Protist
- 1 October 2000
Leptomyxid amoebae encompass a diverse assemblage of amoeboid protists that have been implicated as encephalitis-causing agents. This characteristic is attributed to recent studies identifying new… Expand
The Nucleariid Amoebae: More Protists at the Animal-Fungal Boundary
- L. A. Amaral Zettler, T. Nerad, C. O'kelly, M. Sogin

Abstract Nucleariid amoebae are naked amoebae, generally characterized by a spherical or sometimes flattened body with radiating filopodia. Most species preferentially consume algal prey or… Expand
MOLECULAR ASSESSMENT OF ULVA SPP. (ULVOPHYCEAE, CHLOROPHYTA) IN THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS 1
- C. O'kelly, Akira Kurihara, T. C. Shipley, A. Sherwood
- Biology
- 1 August 2010
Sequences of the nuclear internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1) region and the chloroplast rbcL gene were obtained from 86 specimens of Ulva (including “Enteromorpha”) from five of the main Hawaiian… Expand

- 1 July 2003
Two new species of heterolobosean amoebae from anoxic environments, Monopylocystis visvesvarai and Sawyeria marylandensis, are described on the basis of light microscopy, electron microscopy, and… Expand
Phylogenetic relationships of green algae assigned to the genus Planophila (Chlorophyta): evidence from 18S rDNA sequence data and ultrastructure
- Thomas Friedl, C. O'kelly
- Biology
- 1 August 2002
Phylogenetic analyses, based upon nuclear small-subunit ribosomal RNA gene sequences, of four ‘chlorosarcinoid’ species referred to Planophila Gerneck show that the genus is polyphyletic. The type… Expand
Flagellar apparatus absolute orientations and the phylogeny of the green algae.
- C. O'kelly, G. L. Floyd
- Biology, Medicine
- Bio Systems
- 1983
The absolute orientation of the flagellar apparatus in green algal motile cells is a feature of considerable value in studies of green algal systematics and phylogeny. The absolute orientation… Expand
