Title:Main Title: Analysis of evolutionary processes within the placidid stramenopile flagellates
Description:Abstract: Evolution!at!the!basis!of!the!tree!of!life!has!long!been!and!is!still!fascinating!scientists.! Reconstructing!the!phylogenetic!tree!that!unites!all!lineages!of!eukaryotes!is!still!a!grand! challenge.! The! difficulty! to! define! homologous! characters! across! the! very! different! lineages! makes! it! extremely! difficult! to! resolve! evolutionary! processes.! The! incompleteness! of! consistent! paleontological! records! of! the! delicate! single! cell! organisms!at!the!basis!of!the!tree!of!life!makes! calibration!of!evolutionary!time! scales! imprecise.!To!get!more!insights!into!evolutionary!processes!of!heterotrophic!flagellates,! we!use!Placididea.!This!recently!discovered!class!within!the!stramenopile!flagellates!has! been!isolated!from!nearly!all!continents,!originating!from!locally!separated!and!extreme! conditions,!as!well!as!coastal!regions.!Placidids!are!potentially!fast!evolving!organisms! due!to!their!small!size!and!their!adaptability!to!live!at!isolated!and!extreme!conditions.!
