#prokaryotic — Public Fediverse posts

The #mitochondrion represents a #biological singularity, a discrete #evolutionary event that fundamentally partitioned life on #Earth into two distinct energetic stratums: the #prokaryotic and the #eukaryotic. While colloquially reduced to the moniker of "cellular powerhouse," the mitochondrion is, in functional reality, a highly integrated endosymbiont that serves as the master regulator of eukaryotic physiology

When can syntrophic microbial cooperation win over selfish cheaters? https://ecoevocommunity.nature.com/posts/when-can-syntrophic-microbial-cooperation-win-over-selfish-cheaters

Eco-evolutionary modelling of microbial #syntrophy indicates the robustness of cross-feeding over cross-facilitation https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-023-27421-w

Most #prokaryotes rely on syntrophic partners, but they rarely evolve to full #endosymbiosis. If #mitochondria have originated from a syntrophic #symbiosis, a burning question arises: Why aren't there more #prokaryotic syntrophies that turn into endosymbiosis?

#Microbe filter feeders

This recent research explores how mesh feeding #zooplankton are able to feed directly on #prokaryotic #microorganiisms and suggests #Prochlorococcus (#Cyanobacteria) may be able to evade #predation.
