Phylogenetic positions of Chlorokybus and Mesostigma as inferred from chloroplast small and large subunit rRNA genes. The Chlorokybus rRNA gene sequences were added to a data set previously analyzed by Turmel et al. [16] and phylogenetic analyses of the resulting data set (4,072 sites) were carried out essentially as described in the Methods, except that the TrN+Γ+I model was used. The best ML tree is shown. The nodes that received 100% bootstrap support in ML, MP, ML-distance and LogDet-distance analyses are denoted by asterisks. For the other nodes, only the bootstrap values ≥50% are indicated; the values obtained in ML, MP, ML-distance, and LogDet-distance analyses are listed in this order from left to right.
