The Diversity of Life I. An Overview A. Classifying Organisms

The Diversity of Life I. An Overview A. Classifying Organisms Initially, using a Platonic, typological concept, Linnaeus and others created a nested, hierarchical system.

The Diversity of Life I. An Overview A. Classifying Organisms Initially, using a Platonic, typological concept, Linnaeus and others created a nested, hierarchical system. Evolution explained this nested pattern as a consequence of descent from common ancestors.

The Diversity of Life I. An Overview A. Classifying Organisms B. Kingdoms

The Diversity of Life I. An Overview A. Classifying Organisms B. Kingdoms Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the "Monera" were an incredibly diverse group genetically. Also, one subgroup - the Archea, were more similar to Eukaryotes than to the other group of prokaryotes (the 'Eubacteria').

The Diversity of Life I. An Overview A. Classifying Organisms B. Kingdoms Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the "Monera" were an incredibly diverse group genetically. Also, one subgroup - the Archea, were more similar to Eukaryotes than to the other group of prokaryotes (the 'Eubacteria'). This required a new way of looking at the most fundamental groupings of life - and the introduction of a new term: Domains

The Diversity of Life I. An Overview A. Classifying B. Kingdoms C. Domains

The Diversity of Life I. An Overview A. Classifying B. Kingdoms C. Domains Curiously, the very root of life may be invisible to genetic analysis. Bacteria transfer genes by division (to 'offspring'), but they also transfer genes "laterally" to other living bacteria. This makes reconstructing bacterial phylogenies difficult.

The Diversity of Life I. An Overview A. Classifying B. Kingdoms C. Domains Also, early evolution involved bacterial symbioses and gene sharing between hosts and symbionts

The Diversity of Life I. An Overview A. Classifying B. Kingdoms C. Domains So, reconstructing the patterns of relatedness among these ancient life forms is difficult.
