Heliozoan cellular architecture predicts prey capture performance and growth rate
Prey capture is essential for growth in many species of single-celled eukaryotes, and its various elaborations phenotypically define major eukaryotic clades. Despite impressive work on the mechanistic basis, capture rates, and trade-offs in prey capture, in flagellates in particular, no quantitative assessment of the full fitness contributions of specific prey capture mechanisms has been…
