In Defence of the Three-Domains of Life Paradigm P.T.S
van der Gulik et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology (2017) 17:218 DOI 10.1186/s12862-017-1059-z REVIEW Open Access In defence of the three-domains of life paradigm P.T.S. van der Gulik1*, W.D. Hoff2 and D. Speijer3* Abstract Background: Recently, important discoveries regarding the archaeon that functioned as the “host” in the merger with a bacterium that led to the eukaryotes, its “complex” nature, and its phylogenetic relationship to eukaryotes, have been reported. Based on these new insights proposals have been put forward to get rid of the three-domain Model of life, and replace it with a two-domain model. Results: We present arguments (both regarding timing, complexity, and chemical nature of specific evolutionary processes, as well as regarding genetic structure) to resist such proposals. The three-domain Model represents an accurate description of the differences at the most fundamental level of living organisms, as the eukaryotic lineage that arose from this unique merging event is distinct from both Archaea and Bacteria in a myriad of crucial ways. Conclusions: We maintain that “a natural system of organisms”, as proposed when the three-domain Model of life was introduced, should not be revised when considering the recent discoveries, however exciting they may be.

Phylogenetics Topic 2: Phylogenetic and Genealogical Homology
Phylogenetics Topic 2: Phylogenetic and genealogical homology Phylogenies distinguish homology from similarity Previously, we examined how rooted phylogenies provide a framework for distinguishing similarity due to common ancestry (HOMOLOGY) from non-phylogenetic similarity (ANALOGY). Here we extend the concept of phylogenetic homology by making a further distinction between a HOMOLOGOUS CHARACTER and a HOMOLOGOUS CHARACTER STATE. This distinction is important to molecular evolution, as we often deal with data comprised of homologous characters with non-homologous character states. The figure below shows three hypothetical protein-coding nucleotide sequences (for simplicity, only three codons long) that are related to each other according to a phylogenetic tree. In the figure the nucleotide sequences are aligned to each other; in so doing we are making the implicit assumption that the characters aligned vertically are homologous characters. In the specific case of nucleotide and amino acid alignments this assumption is called POSITIONAL HOMOLOGY. Under positional homology it is implicit that a given position, say the first position in the gene sequence, was the same in the gene sequence of the common ancestor. In the figure below it is clear that some positions do not have identical character states (see red characters in figure below). In such a case the involved position is considered to be a homologous character, while the state of that character will be non-homologous where there are differences. Phylogenetic perspective on homologous characters and homologous character states ACG TAC TAA SYNAPOMORPHY: a shared derived character state in C two or more lineages.

Serial Horizontal Transfer of Vitamin-Biosynthetic Genes Enables the Establishment of New Nutritional Symbionts in Aphids’ Di-Symbiotic Systems
The ISME Journal (2020) 14:259–273 https://doi.org/10.1038/s41396-019-0533-6 ARTICLE Serial horizontal transfer of vitamin-biosynthetic genes enables the establishment of new nutritional symbionts in aphids’ di-symbiotic systems 1 1 1 2 2 Alejandro Manzano-Marıń ● Armelle Coeur d’acier ● Anne-Laure Clamens ● Céline Orvain ● Corinne Cruaud ● 2 1 Valérie Barbe ● Emmanuelle Jousselin Received: 25 February 2019 / Revised: 24 August 2019 / Accepted: 7 September 2019 / Published online: 17 October 2019 © The Author(s) 2019. This article is published with open access Abstract Many insects depend on obligate mutualistic bacteria to provide essential nutrients lacking from their diet. Most aphids, whose diet consists of phloem, rely on the bacterial endosymbiont Buchnera aphidicola to supply essential amino acids and B vitamins. However, in some aphid species, provision of these nutrients is partitioned between Buchnera and a younger bacterial partner, whose identity varies across aphid lineages. Little is known about the origin and the evolutionary stability of these di-symbiotic systems. It is also unclear whether the novel symbionts merely compensate for losses in Buchnera or 1234567890();,: 1234567890();,: carry new nutritional functions. Using whole-genome endosymbiont sequences of nine Cinara aphids that harbour an Erwinia-related symbiont to complement Buchnera, we show that the Erwinia association arose from a single event of symbiont lifestyle shift, from a free-living to an obligate intracellular one. This event resulted in drastic genome reduction, long-term genome stasis, and co-divergence with aphids. Fluorescence in situ hybridisation reveals that Erwinia inhabits its own bacteriocytes near Buchnera’s. Altogether these results depict a scenario for the establishment of Erwinia as an obligate symbiont that mirrors Buchnera’s. -
Introductory Activities
TEACHER’S GUIDE Introduction Dean Madden Introductory NCBE, University of Reading activities Version 1.0 CaseCase Studies introduction Introductory activities The activities in this section explain the basic principles behind the construction of phylogenetic trees, DNA structure and sequence alignment. Students are also intoduced to the Geneious software. Before carrying out the activities in the DNA to Darwin Case studies, students will need to understand: • the basic principles behind the construction of an evolutionary tree or phylogeny; • the basic structure of DNA and proteins; • the reasons for and the principle of alignment; • use of some features of the Geneious computer software (basic version). The activities in this introduction are designed to achieve this. Some of them will reinforce what students may already know; others involve new concepts. The material includes extension activities for more able students. Evolutionary trees In 1837, 12 years before the publication of On the Origin of Species, Charles Darwin famously drew an evolutionary tree in one of his notebooks. The Origin also included a diagram of an evolutionary tree — the only illustration in the book. Two years before, Darwin had written to his friend Thomas Henry Huxley, saying: ‘The time will come, I believe, though I shall not live to see it, when we shall have fairly true genealogical trees of each great kingdom of Nature.’ Today, scientists are trying to produce the ‘Tree of Life’ Darwin foresaw, using protein, DNA and RNA sequence data. Evolutionary trees are covered on pages 2–7 of the Student’s guide and in the PowerPoint and Keynote slide presentations. -

Phylogenetics and Adaptation What is to be explained? • What is the evolutionary history of trait x that we see in a lineage (homology) or multiple lineages (homoplasy) - adaptations as states • Is natural selection the primary evolutionary process leading to the ‘fit’ of organisms to their environment? • Why are some traits more prevalent (occur in more species): number of origins vs. trait- dependent diversification rates (speciation – extinction) Some high points in the history of the adaptation debate: 1950s • Modern Synthesis of Genetics (Dobzhansky), Paleontology (Simpson) and Systematics (Mayr, Grant) 1960s • Rise of evolutionary ecology – synthesis of ecology with strong adaptationism via optimality theory, with little to no history; leads to Sociobiology in the 70s • Appearance of cladistics (Hennig) 1972 • Eldredge and Gould – punctuated equilibrium – argue that Modern Synthesis can’t explain pervasive observation of stasis in fossil record; Gould focuses on development and constraint as explanations, Eldredge more on ecology and importance of migration to minimize selective pressure 1979 • Gould and Lewontin – Spandrels – general critique of adaptationist program and call for rigorous hypothesis testing of alternatives for the ‘fit’ between organism and environment 1980’s • Debate on whether macroevolution can be explained by microevolutionary processes • Comparative methods -
