By synthesizing data from individual gene phylogenies, large concatenated gene trees, and other kinds of molecular, morphological, and biochemical markers, we begin to see the broad outlines of a global phylogenetic tree of eukaryotes. This tree is apparently composed of five large assemblages, or "supergroups." Plants and algae, or more generally eukaryotes with plastids (the photosynthetic organelle of plants and algae and their nonphotosynthetic derivatives) are scattered among four of the… Expand

On the monophyly of chromalveolates using a six-protein phylogeny of eukaryotes.
TLDR
Overall support for much of the phylogenies is decreased over previous analyses that concatenated fewer genes for fewer taxa, Nevertheless, four of the six chromalveolate lineages consistently form a monophyletic assemblage, whereas the remaining two form a weakly supported group. Expand
Changing concepts of a plant: current knowledge on plant diversity and evolution
TLDR
The process of plastid acquisition via endosymbiosis is considered, focusing on the evolution of protein transport machinery, which is indispensable for establishing new lineages of algae, and simultaneous lateral gene transfer from the symbiont to the host nucleus. Expand
The endosymbiotic origin, diversification and fate of plastids

  • 2010
TLDR
The many twists and turns of plastid evolution each represent major evolutionary transitions, and each offers a glimpse into how genomes evolve and how cells integrate through gene transfers and protein trafficking. Expand
Green algae and the origin of land plants.
TLDR
A recent multigene analysis corroborates a close relationship between Mesostigma (formerly in the Prasinophyceae) and the charophyte algae, although sequence data of the Mesost Sigma mitochondrial genome analysis places the genus as sister toCharales, and these studies also support Charales as Sister to land plants.

Phylogenomics Reshuffles the Eukaryotic Supergroups
TLDR
This work reports the sequencing of expressed sequence tags for two species belonging to the supergroup Rhizaria and presents the analysis of a unique dataset combining 29908 amino acid positions and an extensive taxa sampling made of 49 mainly unicellular species representative of all supergroups.

Role of horizontal gene transfer in the evolution of photosynthetic eukaryotes and their plastids.

  • 2009
TLDR
The proteome of many plastids has emerged as a mosaic of proteins from many sources, some from within the same cell (e.g., cytosolic genes or genes left over from the replacement of an earlier plastid), some from thePlastid of other algal lineages, and some from completely unrelated sources. Expand
Phylogenetic history of plastid-targeted proteins in the peridinin-containing dinoflagellate Heterocapsa triquetra.
TLDR
Gen sequence data is generated from the nuclear genome of the dinoflagellate Heterocapsa triquetra and inferred phylogenies for the complete set of identified plastid-targeted proteins are inferred and, in many of the most robust cases, they branch with other chromalveolate algae. Expand
Parallel evolution of highly conserved plastid genome architecture in red seaweeds and seed plants
TLDR
From an ancestral pool of highly rearranged plastid genomes in red and green algae, the aquatic (Florideophyceae) and terrestrial (seed plants) multicellular lineages display high conservation in plastsid genome architecture. Expand

TLDR
It is now possible to speculate on the reasons that nucleomorphs persist in cryptomonads and chlorarachniophytes but have been lost in all other algae with plastids of secondary endosymbiotic origin. Expand
Origin of Algae and Their Plastids
Abstract Algae are of central importance in marine and freshwater ecosystems; however, their origin has remained an enigma. Recent molecular sequence analyses show that algae are of polyphyletic… Expand

TLDR
Phylogenetic analyses provide strong statistical support for an early evolutionary emergence of the Rhodophyta that preceded the origin of the line that led to plants, animals, and fungi, and argue for a reexamination of current models of plastid evolution. Expand

Gene transfer to the nucleus and the evolution of chloroplasts
TLDR
The process of gene loss from chloroplast genomes across the inferred tree is mapped and it is found that independent parallel gene losses in multiple lineages outnumber phylogenetically unique losses by more than 4:1. Expand
THE PHYLOGENY OF PLASTIDS: A REVIEW BASED ON COMPARISONS OF SMALL‐SUBUNIT RIBOSOMAL RNA CODING REGIONS
TLDR
The number and timing of the primary and secondary endosymbiotic events that have resulted in the complex array of extant plastids are addressed and the findings are discussed in relation to existing ultrastructural, biochemical, and sequence data. Expand
Origin and Evolution of Chloroplasts: Current Status and Future Perspectives
TLDR
Differences observed among extant chloroplast genomes may easily be explained by secondary (late) gene relocations/modifications and may therefore help to delineate evolutionary traits. Expand
THE SYMBIOTIC BIRTH AND SPREAD OF PLASTIDS: HOW MANY TIMES AND WHODUNIT?
TLDR
The evidence for a single origin of primary plastids is discussed in the context of a paper in this issue challenging this view, and recent evidence concerning the number of secondary plastid endosymbioses is reviewed. Expand

TLDR
This review offers a snapshot of the current understanding of the origin, biology, and metabolic significance of the non-photosynthetic plastid organelle found in apicomplexan parasites and exposes many gaps remaining in knowledge of this intriguing organelle. Expand
Lateral Transfer and Recompartmentalization of Calvin Cycle Enzymes of Plants and Algae
TLDR
Greater taxonomic sampling shows that these enzymes provide no evidence for a plastid-containing ancestor of Trypanosoma, and shows that a clade of class II FBAs spans a greater diversity of eukaryotes that previously recognized and contains both plASTid-targeted and cytosolic forms. Expand
Early branchings in the evolution of eukaryotes: Ancient divergence of entamoeba that lacks mitochondria revealed by protein sequence data
TLDR
Analysis of amino acid sequence data of elongation factor-1α by a maximum likelihood method suggests that, among eukaryotic kingdoms with mitochondria, Fungi is the closest relative of Animalia, and that a cellular slime mold had not diverged from the line leading to Plantae-Fungi-Animalia before these three kingdoms separated.

Dinoflagellate Nuclear SSU rRNA Phylogeny Suggests Multiple Plastid Losses and Replacements
TLDR
To trace the gain and loss of plastids in dinoflagellates, the nuclear small subunit rRNA gene is sequenced of 28 photosynthetic and four non-photosynthetic species, and phylogenetic trees with a total of 81 dinof lagellate sequences are produced. Expand
