From: Phylotranscriptomics points to multiple independent origins of multicellularity and cellular differentiation in the volvocine algae

Fig. 5

A Phylogeny of the volvocine algae highlighting the lineages in which soma differentiation has evolved (peach). This tree indicates a minimum of four and maximum of six independent origins of cellular differentiation. B Phylogeny of the volvocine algae highlighting the lineages that are isogamous (black), anisogamous (blue), and oogamous (names in pink only). Both phylogenies were inferred using maximum likelihood
