Comprehensive analysis of the microbial consortium in the culture of flagellate Monocercomonoides exilis - Environmental Microbiome Monocercomonoides exilis is a model species of the amitochondrial eukaryotic group Oxymonadida, which makes it a suitable organism for studying the consequences of mitochondrial loss. Although M. exil...

Six Newly Sequenced Chloroplast Genomes From Quadriflagellate Chlamydomonadales (Chlorophyceae): Phylogeny and Comparative Genome Analyses Abstract. Several quadriflagellate genera were revealed as the members of deep branches in Chlamydomonadales. However, the phylogenetic relationships among

Chen et al. sequenced 6 quadriflagellate chloroplast genomes to clarify deep relationships in Chlamydomonadales. Results support Staurocarteria–Hafniomonas as earliest-diverging, and suggest Spermatozopsis belongs in Sphaeropleales.
