Estimation of the divergence time of the origin of plastids (BK-p) was not a goal of this study, and the LCA was not estimated because of an insufficient number of duplicate proteins needed for reciprocal rooting [ 23 ] . Thus, five divergence times were studied: AK, BC, BK-o, BK-m, and GK.
Gene products from 17 of these 23 genes were previously characterized as located in or predicted to locate to plastids.
In proteins involved in transcription and translation, eukaryotes often cluster with archaebacteria whereas in metabolic proteins they often cluster with eubacteria [ 1 ] . Among the latter proteins, eukaryotes sometimes group with α-proteobacteria, presumably reflecting the origin of mitochondria, and plants sometimes cluster with cyanobacteria, reflecting the origin of plastids.
