Phylogenomics of free-living neobodonids reveals they are a paraphyletic group from which all other metakinetoplastids are descended

2025-10-04

Abstract excerpt

Kinetoplastea is a major taxon of microbial eukaryotes that includes the well-known trypanosomatid parasites, species of which cause diseases in humans, animals and plants. Free-living kinetoplastids are greatly understudied compared to their parasitic relatives, but are ecologically important microbivores, and collectively comprise the great majority of kinetoplastid diversity. For two decades kinetoplastids have...
