Plasticity first: molecular signatures of a complex morphological trait in filamentous cyanobacteria.

BMC evolutionary biology - 31 Aug 2017

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Filamentous cyanobacteria that differentiate multiple cell types are considered the peak of prokaryotic complexity and their evolution has been studied in the context of multicellularity origins. Species that form true-branching filaments exemplify the most complex cyanobacteria. However, the mechanisms underlying the true-branching morphology remain poorly understood despite of several investigations...
