  • Protist Phylogeny and the High-Level Classification of Protozoa
    Europ. J. Protistol. 39, 338–348 (2003) © Urban & Fischer Verlag http://www.urbanfischer.de/journals/ejp Protist phylogeny and the high-level classification of Protozoa Thomas Cavalier-Smith Department of Zoology, University of Oxford, South Parks Road, Oxford, OX1 3PS, UK; E-mail: [email protected] Received 1 September 2003; 29 September 2003. Accepted: 29 September 2003 Protist large-scale phylogeny is briefly reviewed and a revised higher classification of the kingdom Pro- tozoa into 11 phyla presented. Complementary gene fusions reveal a fundamental bifurcation among eu- karyotes between two major clades: the ancestrally uniciliate (often unicentriolar) unikonts and the an- cestrally biciliate bikonts, which undergo ciliary transformation by converting a younger anterior cilium into a dissimilar older posterior cilium. Unikonts comprise the ancestrally unikont protozoan phylum Amoebozoa and the opisthokonts (kingdom Animalia, phylum Choanozoa, their sisters or ancestors; and kingdom Fungi). They share a derived triple-gene fusion, absent from bikonts. Bikonts contrastingly share a derived gene fusion between dihydrofolate reductase and thymidylate synthase and include plants and all other protists, comprising the protozoan infrakingdoms Rhizaria [phyla Cercozoa and Re- taria (Radiozoa, Foraminifera)] and Excavata (phyla Loukozoa, Metamonada, Euglenozoa, Percolozoa), plus the kingdom Plantae [Viridaeplantae, Rhodophyta (sisters); Glaucophyta], the chromalveolate clade, and the protozoan phylum Apusozoa (Thecomonadea, Diphylleida). Chromalveolates comprise kingdom Chromista (Cryptista, Heterokonta, Haptophyta) and the protozoan infrakingdom Alveolata [phyla Cilio- phora and Miozoa (= Protalveolata, Dinozoa, Apicomplexa)], which diverged from a common ancestor that enslaved a red alga and evolved novel plastid protein-targeting machinery via the host rough ER and the enslaved algal plasma membrane (periplastid membrane).

Abstract Background: Eukaryotic genes with cyanobacterial ancestry in plastid-lacking protists have been regarded as important evolutionary markers implicating the presence of plastids in the early evolution of eukaryotes. Although recent genomic surveys demonstrated the presence of cyanobacterial and algal ancestry genes in the genomes of plastid-lacking protists, comparative analyses on the origin and distribution of those genes are still limited.

Printed on acid-free paper Springer is part of Springer Science+Business Media (www.springer.com) Preface It is generally assumed that sponges (phylum Porifera) are the most basal metazoans (Kobayashi et al. 1993; Li et al. 1998; Mehl et al. 1998; Kim et al. 1999; Philippe et al. 2009). In this connection sponges are of a great interest for EvoDevo biolo- gists. None of the problems of early evolution of multicellular animals and recon- struction of a natural system of their main phylogenetic clades can be discussed without considering the sponges. These animals possess the extremely low level of tissues organization, and demonstrate extremely low level of processes of gameto- genesis, embryogenesis, and metamorphosis. They show also various ways of advancement of these basic mechanisms that allow us to understand processes of establishment of the latter in the early Metazoan evolution.

In trypanosomes [Kinetoplastea], DNA circles are compacted into a single dense body, the kinetoplast. This report addresses the question whether multi-chromosome mitochondrial genomes and compacted chromosome organization are restricted to Kinetoplastea or rather occur throughout Euglenozoa, i.e., Kinetoplastea, Euglenida and Diplonemea. To this end, we investigated the diplonemid Rhynchopus euleeides and the euglenids Petalomonas cantuscygni, Peranema tricho- phorum and Entosiphon sulcatum, using light and electron microscopy and molecular techniques. Our findings together with previously published data show that multi-chromosome mitochondrial genomes prevail across Euglenozoa, while kinetoplast-like mtDNA packaging is confined to trypanosomes. & 2007 Elsevier GmbH.
