Molecular phylogeny and comparative chloroplast genome analysis of the type species Crucigenia quadrata [PDF]
BMC Plant BiologyBackground The confused taxonomic classification of Crucigenia is mainly inferred through morphological evidence and few nuclear genes and chloroplast genomic fragments. The phylogenetic status of C.

Microsatellite Primers in the Lichen Symbiotic Alga Trebouxia decolorans (Trebouxiophyceae) [PDF]
Applications in Plant Sciences, 2013 Premise of the study: Polymorphic microsatellite markers were developed for the symbiotic green alga Trebouxia decolorans to study fine-scale population structure and clonal diversity.

Phylogenomics reveals the evolutionary origins of lichenization in chlorophyte algae [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsMutualistic symbioses have contributed to major transitions in the evolution of life. Here, we investigate the evolutionary history and the molecular innovations at the origin of lichens, which are a symbiosis established between fungi and green algae or

Dynamic Evolution of the Chloroplast Genome in the Green Algal Classes Pedinophyceae and Trebouxiophyceae [PDF]
Genome Biology and Evolution, 2015 Previous studies of trebouxiophycean chloroplast genomes revealed little information regarding the evolutionary dynamics of this genome because taxon sampling was too sparse and the relationships between the sampled taxa were unknown. We recently sequenced the chloroplast genomes of 27 trebouxiophycean and 2 pedinophycean green algae to resolve the ...

Micractinium tetrahymenae (Trebouxiophyceae, Chlorophyta), a New Endosymbiont Isolated from Ciliates [PDF]
Diversity, 2020 Endosymbiosis between coccoid green algae and ciliates are widely distributed and occur in various phylogenetic lineages among the Ciliophora. Most mixotrophic ciliates live in symbiosis with different species and genera of the so-called Chlorella clade (

Semilichen, an unjustly neglected symbiotic system between green biofilms and true lichens [PDF]
Scientific ReportsSymbiotic systems of photosynthetic microorganisms and fungi are widespread in terrestrial biomes and lichens are probably the most advanced and complex.

The chromosome-level genome sequences of the freshwater sponge, Spongilla lacustris (Linnaeus, 1759) and the chlorophyte cobiont Choricystis sp., and the associated microbial metagenome sequences [version 1; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]
Wellcome Open ResearchWe present a genome assembly from an individual Spongilla lacustris (freshwater sponge; Porifera; Demospongiae; Spongillida; Spongillidae). The genome sequence is 248.7 megabases in span.

Cell ReportsTrebouxiophyceae, with its morphological and ecological diversity, is the ideal candidate for tracing the origin and evolution of green algae, yet its phylogeny and diversification timeline remain unresolved. Our high-density taxa and large-scale nuclear gene sampling confirm its monophyly, dividing it into the core trebouxiophyceans clade and the ...
