Figure 3

Phylogenetic analyses of chlamydial proteins in the Bacillariophyta support the occurrence of two independent HGT/EGT events. Unrooted maximum likelihood trees of concatenated data sets. Support values: maximum likelihood bootstrap/posterior probability. Scale bars = substitutions per site. (A) Concatenated data set of seven proteins showing relationship of diatoms to rhodoplants (12 taxa; 2675 amino acid positions). (B) Concatenated data set of five proteins showing a relationship of viridiplant and diatom genes (same 12 taxa as in Fig. 3A; 1736 amino acid positions). For a complete list of genes used in the two concatenated analyses see Additional File 5.
