Over the last five years, the study of early eukaryote evolution has undergone a revolution, with ideas that prevailed for twenty years being revised, updated or abandoned in the face of more sophisticated analysis of molecular sequence data. A new synthesis is emerging, although major conflict still exists within the research community.Organelles, Genomes and Eukaryote Phylogeny covers recent developments in the field of "deep level" phylogenetic inference of eukaryotes, especially with respect to the origin and evolution of eukaryotic cells and their organelles. By focusing on interpretation of data derived from molecular and cell biology, genome sequencing with respect to the timing and mechanism of eukaryogenesis, and the endosymbiotic events leading to mitochondria and plastids, this book provides a text relevant to all postgraduates and professionals working in molecular systematics, comparative genomics and cell biology.
