Genes of green algal origin. Maximum likelihood trees inferring a green-algal origin of L. chlorophorum of PsbO, RuBisCO activase, PsbP, PsbR and PAP protein kinase. The phylogenies were inferred using RAxML. Bootstrap values >50%are indicated on the branches. Green and red lineages are indicated by color. Secondary green algae are in bold. Filled dots indicate 100% bootstrap support. Bayesian posterior probability values are indicated for some of the most important splits.
