Species tree of the 13 analyzed extremophilic Cyanidiales genomes using mesophilic red (Porphyra umbilicalis, Porphyridium purpureum) and green algae (Ostreococcus tauri, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii) as outgroups.

IQTREE was used to infer a single maximum-likelihood phylogeny based on orthogroups containing single-copy representative proteins from at least 12 of the 17 taxa (13 Cyanidiales + 4 Others). Each …

Comparative analysis of the 96 OGs potentially derived from HGT.

(A) OG count vs. the number of Cyanidiales species contained in an OG (=OG size). Only genes from the sequenced genomes were considered (13 species). A total of 60 OGs are exclusive to the Galdieria

Figure 5 with 96 supplements
The analysis of OGs containing HGT candidates revealed different patterns of HGT acquisition.

Some OGs contain genes that are shared by all Cyanidiales, whereas others are unique to the Galdieria or Cyanidioschyzon lineage. In some cases, HGT appears to have replaced the eukaryotic genes in …
