This project investigates the evolutionary process of endosymbiosis using protists, focusing on the transition from free-living organisms to endosymbionts and then to organelles. It employs advanced techniques to explore metabolic integration and environmental influences on these relationships.
Endosymbiosis merges organisms and leads to evolutionary innovation.
Hence endosymbiotic interactions play key roles in ecosystems and have shaped eukaryotic evolution, e.g., the formation of mitochondria and chloroplast organelles.
The evolution of endosymbioses entails two key transitions: the transition from free-living to endosymbiont and from endosymbiont to organelle.
These critical phases are difficult to study because extant relationships are often highly derived, and thus substantial kn…
