Comparing the Dictyostelium and Entamoeba Genomes Reveals an Ancient Split in the Conosa Lineage
Figure 1
Shared Gene Archetypes between Amoeba and Other Eukaryotes
The combined RBH and TribeMCL clustering identified 1,510 gene archetypes between E. histolytica and D. discoideum, with all but 63 shared with five other model eukaryotes. This Venn diagram illustrates how the shared archetypes are distributed with other eukaryotic genomes; the amoeba-specific genes are not displayed here. Animals are represented by H. sapiens, C. elegans, and D. melanogaster. Plant is represented by A. thaliana, and yeast by S. cerevisiae.
