Postgaardia are a proposed basal Euglenozoan clade, following Cavalier-Smith.[1] As Euglenozoans may be basal Eukaryotes, the Postgaardia may be key to studying the evolution of Eukaryotes, including the incorporation of eukaryotic traits such as the incorporation of alphaproteobacterial mitochondrial endosymbionts.
Characteristics
[edit]Euglenozoa are characterized by the ultrastructure of the flagella. In addition to the normal supporting microtubules or axoneme, each contains a rod (called paraxonemal), which has a tubular structure in one flagellum and a latticed structure in the other. Based on this, two smaller groups have been included here: the diplonemids and Postgaardi.[2]
Postgaardea is a third deep-branching euglenozoan clade that may be a sister to Euglenoida but does not branch within them or Glycomonada on the evolutionary most realistic sequence trees presented in the next three sections, contrary to some poorly resolved earlier trees. They were placed in the new subphylum Postgaardia because they are radically different ultrastructurally from both euglenoids and glycomonads.[1]
Postgaardia are biciliate free-living anaerobes covered in epibiotic bacteria in longitudinal rows are the diagnosis. A highly contractile pellicle with multiple evenly spaced microtubules and no morphogenetic pairs that are specifically distinguished. Without cytostomal or reservoir encircling fibers, cemented jaw supports, or hard longitudinal straight cemented rods, the cytopharynx is simplified. Postgaardea is the lone included class in etymology.[1]
Reconstructions of FA ultrastructure in Postgaardi and Calkinsia confirmed that they were fundamentally similar and deserved to be classified together as a distinct order Postgaardida and class Postgaardea (Cavalier-Smith 1998), as both genera share six finger-like projections.[1]
