This project explores the evolutionary transition from single-celled to multicellular organisms, focusing on the Opisthokont super-group. It aims to conduct genomic analyses of unicellular relatives of animals to understand the origins of multicellularity.
The emergence of multicellular organisms from single-celled ancestors is one of the most profound evolutionary steps in life’s history.
However, and despite its importance, little is known about this pivotal evolutionary event.
Interestingly, the emergence of multicellular organisms has occurred several times independently within the eukaryotes, such as in animals, fungi and plants.
In this context, the super-group known as the Opisthokonts offers a unique evolutionary window to investigate the…
