Cellular differentiation into hyphae and spores in halophilic archaea [PDF]
Several groups of bacteria have complex life cycles involving cellular differentiation and multicellular structures. For example, actinobacteria of the genus Streptomyces form multicellular vegetative hyphae, aerial hyphae, and spores.

The Structure of Evolutionary Model Space for Proteins across the Tree of Life [PDF]
The factors that determine the relative rates of amino acid substitution during protein evolution are complex and known to vary among taxa. We estimated relative exchangeabilities for pairs of amino acids from clades spread across the tree of life and ...
