Evolutionary relationship of GSII B genes from prokaryotes and eukaryotes, terminal taxa expanded. The inclusion of GSIIB genes from eukaryotes (early-diverging Chloroplastida) within prokaryotic GSIIB clade is evidence of HGT from prokaryotes to eukaryotes within this group. Nodes with BBP support > 0.95 are represented by thick lines. RAxML bootstrap values are indicated for major nodes. RAxML values are not indicated for terminal bifurcations. The sequence characterized in the present study is shown in bold.
