Journal ArticleDOI

A multi-gene molecular investigation of the kelp (Laminariales, Phaeophyceae) supports substantial taxonomic re-organization

TL;DR: The first comprehensive and well‐supported molecular phylogeny for the ALL complex of the Laminariales is presented, maintaining the three recognized families, but with vastly different compositions, as well as proposing the Costariaceae fam.
Journal ArticleDOI

A molecular assessment of northeast Pacific Alaria species (Laminariales, Phaeophyceae) with reference to the utility of DNA barcoding.

TL;DR: DNA barcoding was applied, using the 5' end of the cytochrome c oxidase I (coxI-5') gene from the mitochondrial genome, to define species limits and relationships in northeast Pacific populations of Alaria, indicating a period of genetic isolation for at least three incipient species in the northeast Pacific.
Journal ArticleDOI

The eukaryotic tree of life: endosymbiosis takes its TOL

TL;DR: This work states that accurate identification of gene transfers and replacements involving eukaryotic donor and recipient genomes represents a potentially formidable challenge for the phylogenomics community as more protist genomes are sequenced and concatenated data sets grow.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nucleomorph genome of Hemiselmis andersenii reveals complete intron loss and compaction as a driver of protein structure and function

TL;DR: The results indicate that genome compaction can eliminate both coding and noncoding DNA and, consequently, drive the evolution of protein structure and function.
