New #ISEPpapers #preprint! #Nucleomorph #phylogenomics suggests a deep and ancient origin of cryptophyte #plastids within #Rhodophyta: @animalculum et al. https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.03.10.584144v2

"Our analyses place cryptophyte #nucleomorphs as sister to the #extremophilic #Cyanidiophytina. This conflicts with published analyses based on plastidial genes that placed red complex #plastids closer to the mesophilic #Rhodophytina"
