Aug 25, 2005 · Eukaryotic cells have two contrasting cytoskeletal and ciliary organizations. The simplest involves a single cilium-bearing centriole, nucleating a cone of individual microtubules (probably...

One of the most widespread hypotheses roots the eukaryote tree between the Unikonta, unicellular organisms whose ancestral mode of locomotion appears to have been based on a single cilium and basal body, and the Bikonta (Cavalier-Smith 2002).

The unikonts include opisthokonts (animals, fungi, and related forms) and Amoebozoa. By contrast other well-known eukaryotic groups are often referred to as bikonts. Bikonts include Archaeplastida (plants and relatives), Excavata, Rhizaria, and Chromalveolata.
Mar 30, 2006 · If both unikonts and bikonts are monophyletic groups, and together they encompass extant eukaryotic diversity, then the root of eukaryotes would lie between them.

Oct 9, 2019 · In the early 2000s, the presence or absence of several discrete molecular and cell-biological properties in various supergroups was used to argue that the root of the eukaryote tree fell between two major clades: the ‘unikonts’ (including Opisthokonts and Amoebozoa; i.e., Amorphea) and the ‘bikonts’ (almost all other eukaryotes) .

Feb 24, 2009 · A recent phylogenomic investigation shows that the enigmatic flagellate Breviata is a distinct anaerobic lineage within the eukaryote super-group Amoebozoa and challenges the unikont–bikont rooting of the tree of eukaryotes.
Oct 17, 2012 · The eukaryotic supergroup Opisthokonta includes animals (Metazoa), fungi, and choanoflagellates, as well as the lesser known unicellular lineages Nucleariidae, Fonticula alba, Ichthyosporea,...
