Toward an empirical framework for interpreting plastid evolution
Abstract
The idea that evolutionary models should minimize plastid endosymbioses has dominated thinking about the history of eukaryotic photosynthesis. Although a reasonable starting point, this framework has not gained support from observed patterns of algal and plant evolution, and can be an obstacle to fully understanding the modern distribution of plastids. Empirical data indicate that plastid losses are extremely uncommon, that major changes in...
