Genome sequencing of the multicellular alga Astrephomene provides insights into convergent evolution of germ-soma differentiation

Abstract Germ-soma differentiation evolved independently in many eukaryotic lineages and contributed to complex multicellular organizations. However, the molecular genetic bases of such convergent evolution remain unresolved. Two multicellular volvocine green algae, Volvox and Astrephomene, exhibit...
