This project investigates the evolution and biodiversity of dictyostelids, a group of social amoebae that serve as important soil microbes. By developing a comprehensive phylogeny and incorporating new taxa, it aims to enhance understanding of their ecological roles and evolutionary significance in cell biology.
The dictyostelids (social amoebae) are a major group of soil microbes that hover at the borderline of true multicellularity.
With the completion of the Dictyostelium discoideum genome in late 2005 and the publication of the first molecular phylogeny in late 2006, Dictyostelia is gaining increasing importance as an evolutionary model system.
It is a powerful and unique system for studying the evolution of fundamental eukaryotic cell biology, from cell-cell signalling to the origin and evolution o…
