    Författare :Caesar Al Jewari; Sandra L Baldauf; Fabien Burki; Antonis Rokas; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Eukaryote Tree of Life; Excavata; phylogenetics; phylogenomics; Mitochondria; Biology with specialization in Systematics; Biologi med inriktning mot systematik;

    Sammanfattning : My thesis aims to solve deep nodes in the eukaryote tree of life (eToL), by developing new data sets and new approaches to analysing them. In paper I, I described a dataset of 76 universal eukaryotic proteins of bacterial descent (euBacs), in order to test the relations among the three main divisions of mitochondriate eukaryotes (Amorphea, Diaphretickes and Discoba).

  3. 2. Environmental sequencing to infer patterns of eukaryotic evolution : Combining long-read and short-read metabarcoding

    Författare :Mahwash Jamy; Fabien Burki; Micah Dunthorn; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Protists; eukaryotes; environmental sequencing; ribosomal DNA; PacBio; long-read metabarcoding; phylogenetics; salt barrier; habitat evolution; eukaryotes evolution; evolutionary rate; Apicomplexa; pathogen; Biology with specialization in Systematics; Biologi med inriktning mot systematik;

    Sammanfattning : Our view of eukaryotes is biased towards plants, animals, and fungi. But the vast majority of eukaryotic diversity is microbial in nature. These microbial eukaryotes are key players in all ecosystems on earth and are collectively known as protists. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Evolutionary transitions across the tree of life : Phylogenomic case studies in environmental archaea, bacteria and eukaryotes

    Författare :Max Emil Schön; Thijs J. G. Ettema; Fabien Burki; David Moreira; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Evolutionary transitions; environmental sequencing; metagenomics; single-cell genomics; phylogenomics; haloarchaea; Hikarchaeia; Rickettsiales; Picozoa; plastid evolution; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär evolution; Biology with specialization in Molecular Evolution;

    Sammanfattning : Microbes form the majority of life on Earth, but have been systematically underrepresented in historical research. The sequencing revolutions of the last two decades have completely changed the way we can study microbial genomic information, giving us the means to probe ever deeper into their evolution. LÄS MER
