Genome streamlining via complete loss of introns has occurred multiple times in lichenized fungal mitochondria [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution, 2019
AbstractReductions in genome size and complexity are a hallmark of obligate symbioses. The mitochondrial genome displays clear examples of these reductions, with the ancestral alpha‐proteobacterial genome size and gene number having been reduced by orders of magnitude in most descendent modern mitochondrial genomes.

Gene Content Evolution in Discobid Mitochondria Deduced from the Phylogenetic Position and Complete Mitochondrial Genome of Tsukubamonas globosa [PDF]

Genome Biology and Evolution, 2014
The unicellular eukaryotic assemblage Discoba (Excavata) comprises four lineages: the Heterolobosea, Euglenozoa, Jakobida, and Tsukubamonadida. Discoba has been considered as a key assemblage for understanding the early evolution of mitochondrial (mt) genomes, as jakobids retain the most gene-rich (i.e., primitive) genomes compared with any other ...

Complete Mitochondrial Genomes of Ancyromonads Provide Clues for the Gene Content and Genome Structures of Ancestral Mitochondria

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology
ABSTRACT Mitochondria of eukaryotic cells are direct descendants of an endosymbiotic bacterium related to Alphaproteobacteria. These organelles retain their own genomes, which are highly reduced and divergent when compared to those of their bacterial relatives.

Purifying selection and intraspecies recombination may drive the speciation in Crassostrea: evidence from complete mitochondria sequence of Crassostrea hongkongensis and comparative genomic analysis

Abstract Repeat dynamics and recombination play a crucial role during the evolution of the mitochondrial genome in plants and animals. However, this phenomenon has got less attention within Crassostrea, a complex marine species found worldwide having high commercial value as well as efficient carbon neutralizer ...
