          <jats:p>

            Although diplonemid protists (Diplonemea, Euglenozoa) are among the most species-rich microeukaryotes in the ocean, many ultrastructural features of this lineage remain to be clarified. Using serial block-face scanning and transmission electron microscopy, we provide the whole-cell three-dimensional model of a previously undescribed diplonemid

            <jats:italic>Lacrimia vacuolata</jats:italic>

            sp. nov. For the first time, we were able to reconstruct a diplonemid cell in detail, including all its organelles and the flagellar and feeding apparatuses. By analyzing various stages of the cell cycle, we provide the first description of a diplonemid cell division, which is characterized by the disassembly of flagellar axonemes and the feeding apparatus and their further construction in the daughter cells. Moreover, we have identified a novel, ultrastructurally complex organelle, herein named the colv (

            <jats:title>IMPORTANCE</jats:title>

            <jats:p>The knowledge of cell biology of a eukaryotic group is essential for correct interpretation of ecological and molecular data. Although diplonemid protists are one of the most species-rich lineages of marine eukaryotes, only very fragmentary information is available about the cellular architecture of this taxonomically diverse group. Here, a large serial block-face scanning electron microscopy data set complemented with light and fluorescence microscopy allowed the first detailed three-dimensional reconstruction of a diplonemid species. We describe numerous previously unknown peculiarities of the cellular architecture and cell division characteristic for diplonemid flagellates, and illustrate the obtained results with multiple three-dimensional models, comprehensible for non-specialists in protist ultrastructure.</jats:p>

               <jats:p>Gene transfer agents (GTAs) are virus-like structures that package and transfer prokaryotic DNA from donor to recipient prokaryotic cells. Here, we describe widespread GTA gene clusters in the highly reduced genomes of bacterial endosymbionts from microbial eukaryotes (protists). Homologs of the GTA capsid and portal complexes were initially found to be present in several highly reduced alphaproteobacterial endosymbionts of diplonemid protists (Rickettsiales and Rhodospirillales). Evidence of GTA expression was found in polyA-enriched metatranscriptomes of the diplonemid hosts and their endosymbionts, but due to biases in the polyA-enrichment methods, levels of GTA expression could not be determined. Examining the genomes of closely related bacteria revealed that the pattern of retained GTA head/capsid complexes with missing tail components was common across Rickettsiales and Holosporaceae (Rhodospirillales), all obligate symbionts with a wide variety of eukaryotic hosts. A dN/dS analysis of Rickettsiales and Holosporaceae symbionts revealed that purifying selection is likely the main driver of GTA evolution in symbionts, suggesting they remain functional, but the ecological function of GTAs in bacterial symbionts is unknown. In particular, it is unclear how increasing horizontal gene transfer in small, largely clonal endosymbiont populations can explain GTA retention, and, therefore, the structures may have been repurposed in endosymbionts for host interactions. Either way, their widespread retention and conservation in endosymbionts of diverse eukaryotes suggests an important role in symbiosis.</jats:p>},

                <jats:title>Background</jats:title>

                <jats:p>The family Trypanosomatidae encompasses parasitic flagellates, some of which cause serious vector-transmitted diseases of humans and domestic animals. However, insect-restricted parasites represent the ancestral and most diverse group within the family. They display a range of unusual features and their study can provide insights into the biology of human pathogens. Here we describe <jats:italic>Vickermania</jats:italic>, a new genus of fly midgut-dwelling parasites that bear two flagella in contrast to other trypanosomatids, which are unambiguously uniflagellate.</jats:p>

              </jats:sec><jats:sec>

                <jats:title>Results</jats:title>

                <jats:p><jats:italic>Vickermania</jats:italic> has an odd cell cycle, in which shortly after the division the uniflagellate cell starts growing a new flagellum attached to the old one and preserves their contact until the late cytokinesis. The flagella connect to each other throughout their whole length and carry a peculiar seizing structure with a paddle-like apex and two lateral extensions at their tip. In contrast to typical trypanosomatids, which attach to the insect host’s intestinal wall, <jats:italic>Vickermania</jats:italic> is separated from it by a continuous peritrophic membrane and resides freely in the fly midgut lumen.</jats:p>

              </jats:sec><jats:sec>

                <jats:title>Conclusions</jats:title>

                <jats:p>We propose that <jats:italic>Vickermania</jats:italic> developed a survival strategy that relies on constant movement preventing discharge from the host gut due to intestinal peristalsis. Since these parasites cannot attach to the midgut wall, they were forced to shorten the period of impaired motility when two separate flagella in dividing cells interfere with each other. The connection between the flagella ensures their coordinate movement until the separation of the daughter cells. We propose that <jats:italic>Trypanosoma brucei</jats:italic>, a severe human pathogen, during its development in the tsetse fly midgut faces the same conditions and follows the same strategy as <jats:italic>Vickermania</jats:italic> by employing an analogous adaptation, the flagellar connector.</jats:p>

            Diplonemids represent a hyperdiverse and abundant yet poorly studied group of marine protists. Here we describe two new members of the genus

            <jats:italic>Diplonema</jats:italic>

            (Diplonemea, Euglenozoa),

            <jats:italic>Diplonema japonicum</jats:italic>

            <jats:italic>Diplonema aggregatum</jats:italic>

            sp. nov., based on life cycle, morphology, and 18S rRNA gene sequences. Along with euglenozoan apomorphies, they contain several unique features. Their life cycle is complex, consisting of a trophic stage that is, following the depletion of nutrients, transformed into a sessile stage and subsequently into a swimming stage. The latter two stages are characterized by the presence of tubular extrusomes and the emergence of a paraflagellar rod, the supportive structure of the flagellum, which is prominently lacking in the trophic stage. These two stages also differ dramatically in motility and flagellar size. Both diplonemid species host endosymbiotic bacteria that are closely related to each other and constitute a novel branch within

            <jats:italic>Holosporales</jats:italic>

            , for which a new genus, “

            <jats:italic>Candidatus</jats:italic>

            Cytomitobacter” gen. nov., has been established. Remarkably, the number of endosymbionts in the cytoplasm varies significantly, as does their localization within the cell, where they seem to penetrate the mitochondrion, a rare occurrence.

            species that established a relationship with two

            <jats:italic>Holospora</jats:italic>

            -like bacteria in the first report of an endosymbiosis in diplonemids. Both endosymbionts reside in the cytoplasm and the mitochondrion, which establishes an extremely rare case. Within their life cycle, the diplonemids undergo transformation from a trophic to a sessile and eventually a highly motile swimming stage. These stages differ in several features, such as the presence or absence of tubular extrusomes and a paraflagellar rod, along with the length of the flagella. These morphological and behavioral interstage differences possibly reflect distinct functions in dispersion and invasion of the host and/or prey and may provide novel insight into the virtually unknown function of diplonemids in the oceanic ecosystem.
