Sentence examples for algal groups that from inspiring English sources

Diatoms and cryptophytes are very distantly related algal groups that share the characteristic of having secondary plastids of red algal origin (Bachvaroff et al. 2005; Burki et al. 2012).

Comment: Coralline crusts are among the least studied and taxonomically most confused of the algal groups that we have encountered during our global barcode surveys.

A draft genome sequence is available for Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [ 8], a chlorophytic green alga that is a distant relative of the charophytic algal group that gave rise to land plants [ 9].

The detected fatty acid (FA) composition of the 2076 investigated strains was statistically analyzed to test whether certain patterns of FA distribution among the various investigated algal groups are present that may correspond to their phylogenetic relationships.

The presence of these genes has been interpreted widely as support for the chromalveolate model [ 7, 8, 12, 13], which argues that algal groups (ochrophytes, cryptophytes, haptophytes, dinoflagellates, apicomplexans) with red algal-derived plastids trace to a common photosynthetic ancestor [ 14].

It is interesting that two distantly related algal groups have individually evolved multiple copied genomes in endosymbiotically derived organelles.

As in Year 1, algal cover in the redband-only treatments was similar to that of the herbivore exclosures for most algal groups with redband parrotfish facilitating accumulation of taller algal turfs (Fig. 4).

The endosymbionts that gave rise to nucleomorphs and plastids in these two algal groups were green and red algae, respectively.

In addition, the conserved domains in CYP97Bs of distinct algae phyla are also similar, implying that this gene occurred before the formation of extant diverse algal groups.

Consequently, a number of efforts have been made to look for evidence of EGT/EGR from a photosynthetic endosymbiont that could have been lost from parasitic and heterotrophic relatives of various algal groups [ 10- 12].

The three previous analyses showed that phylogenetic relationships at the level of phyla and classes among algal groups were reflected in FA distribution patterns using a large sample of strains.
