A phylogenetic and proteomic reconstruction of eukaryotic chromatin evolution

X. Grau-Bove, C. Navarrete, C. Chiva, T. Pribasnig, M. Anto, G. Torruella, L. J. Galindo, B. F. Lang, D. Moreira, P. Lopez-Garcia, I. Ruiz-Trillo, C. Schleper, E. Sabido, A. Sebe-Pedros

This study reconstructs the evolutionary history of eukaryotic chromatin by combining proteomics and phylogenetic analysis, revealing pre-eukaryotic origins of chromatin functions and eukaryotic innovations.

Phylogenomics of a new fungal phylum reveals multiple waves of reductive evolution across Holomycota

L. J. Galindo, P. Lopez-Garcia, G. Torruella, S. A. Karpov, D. Moreira

The paper sequences single-cell genomes of two parasitic fungi, identifies a new phylum, and reveals evolutionary patterns in flagellum loss and metabolic reduction across Holomycota.

The aphelid-like phagotrophic origins of fungi

G. Torruella, X. Grau-Bove, D. Moreira, S. A. Karpov, J. Burns, A. Sebe-Pedros, E. Volcker, P. Lopez-Garcia

This study generates transcriptome data for an aphelid and uses phylogenomic analysis to suggest fungi evolved from a phagotrophic opisthosporidian ancestor.
