Genomic and Cellular Integration in the Tripartite Nested Mealybug Symbiosis
 HUSNÍK, Filip
The PhD thesis is composed of three publications on genomic, metabolic, and cellular integration between the host and its symbionts in the tripartite nested mealybug system. The articles revealed a path to an intimate endosymbiosis that can be compared to what we think happened before (and to some extent after) bacterial ancestors of key eukaryotic organelles, mitochondria and plastids, became highly integrated into their host cells. I argue that these much younger symbioses may tell us something about how the mitochondria and plastids came to be, at the very least by revealing what types of evolutionary events are possible as stable intracellular relationships proceed along the path of integration.

Evolution of selected enzymes of the shikimate pathway and the haem biosynthetic pathway in Rhodophyta (class Florideophyceae)
 VORÁČOVÁ, Kateřina
Diatoms derived their plastid from red algae through the secondary endosymbiosis. Most of the endosymbiont genes have been transferred from the engulfed alga to the secondary host nucleus, therefore evolution of these genes correspond to the evolution of plastids rather than to the evolution of the host organisms. Similarly, genes coding for ferrochelatase and DAHP synthase from diatoms are closely related to those from plants and green algae. Contrary to this, red algal genes do not cluster within this clade. I tried to amplify and sequence genes coding for ferrochelatase and DAHP synthase from representatives of the class Florideophyceae to investigate their phylogenetic position.
