Figures & data

Figure 1. Light Micrograph of Coelastrum microporum, taken by the authors, from the strain deposited as UTEX 3178.

Figure 2. Gene map of Coelastrum microporum plastome. Inverted repeats (IRA and IRB) and two single-copy regions are indicated on the inner circle with G/C content (dark grey) and A/T content (light grey). colored gene boxes are indicated by functional group as shown in the key.

Figure 3. Maximum likelihood phylogeny of Coelastrum microporum, 22 species in Sphaeropleales and Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (outgroup) based on 58 CDSs shared by C. microporum and 23 publicly accessible plastomes in Sphaeropleales and chlamydomonadales. Numbers above branches are bootstrap values from 1000 bootstrap replicates in which asterisks represent bootstrap values of 100.
