The phylogenetic distribution of symbioses between eukaryotic hosts and prokaryotes is much wider than previously thought, which reinforces the view that this phenomenon has a role in promoting ...

Work in the Katz lab aims to elucidate principles of eukaryotic evolution through phylogenetic reconstruction, community sampling and analyses ... We are currently focusing on four aspects of the ...
