Summary: The microbial eukaryotes known as protists are of immense importance for our understanding of eukaryotic biology. Although it is often difficult to convince funding bodies to sponsor research projects aimed at finding new protist lineages, such discoveries usually provide new and fundamental insights into cell and evolutionary biology, and ecology.
Abstract: The number of sequenced trypanosomatid genomes has reached a critical point so that they are now available for almost all genera and subgenera. Based on this, we inferred a phylogenomic tree and propose it as a framework to study trait evolution together with some examples of how to do it.
Abstract: Protists are key players in the biosphere. Here, we provide a perspective on integrating protist culturing with omics approaches, imaging, and high-throughput single-cell manipulation strategies, concluding with actions required for a successful return of the golden age of protist culturing.
