Figure 2

Radar graphs of average distance of plastid-, nucleus-, and nucleomorph-encoded plastid proteins, and nucleomorph-encoded non-plastid proteins of: (A) the cryptophyte G. theta (GT), the red algae C. merolae (CM) and the plant A. thaliana (AT); and (B) the chlororachniophyte B. natans (BN), the green algae C. reinhartii (CR) and A. thaliana (AT) without and with substitution matrices (Dayhoff, VT). In each case the secondary endosymbiont-containing organism is compared to a free living example of its symbiont (red or green algae for A and B, respectively) and the plant A. thaliana as an outgroup. Note, scale is different for graphs either without or with substitution matrices.
