  1. Group 5Martin DavisAvonlea GardnerJoshua HurleyJessica MullinsLauren Stagner What are the most recent ideas about which of these groups rise to the three multicellular eukaryotic kingdoms?

  2. Nucleariids: Fungi Neighbors • “Our analyses with nuclear (118 proteins) and mitochondrial (13 proteins) data now robustly associate Nucleariida and Fungi as neighbors, an assemblage that we term 'Holomycota'. With Nucleariida as an outgroup, we revisit unresolved deep fungal relationships.” • -BMC EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGY; NOV 25, 2009, 9 11p. • “Over 90% of all plant species engage in mycorrhizal relationships with fungi and are dependent upon these relationships for survival”. • -Boundless.com

  3. Protista to Animalia: Protozoans • Choanoflagellate rDNA and mitochondrial genome comparisons with three sponge species indicate protista -> animalia connection (Lavrov et. al., 2005) • Choanoflagellates use their flagellum to draw in water and filter feed in the same way as sponges • Some Choanoflagellates form simple colonies

  4. Plant-like Protists: Autotrophs • Have chlorophyll and also carry out photosynthesis • Four phyla: euglenophytes, chrysophytes, diatoms, dinoflagellates • Have accessory pigments that help absorb light, thus giving algae a variety of colors
