Transitional forms between the three domains of life and evolutionary implications
Transitional forms between the three domains of life and evolutionary implications is a scholarly work by Damien Devos, published in 2011 in ''Proceedings of the Royal Society B''. The main subjects of the publication include biology, RNA sequencing, ancestor, tree of life, epistemology, most recent common ancestor, evolutionary biology, phylogenetic tree, mycorrhiza, phylogenetics, Chlamydiae, and three-domain system. The authors propose a scenario in which the ancestor of the current bacterial Planctomycetes, Verrucomicrobiae and Chlamydiae superphylum was related to the last archaeal and eukaryotic common ancestor, thus providing a way out of the phylogenetic impasse..
