Cyanobacterial phylogenetic analysis based on phylogenomics approaches render evolutionary diversification and adaptation: an overview of representative orders.

ABSTRACT: Phylogenetic studies based on a definite set of marker genes usually reconstruct evolutionary relationships among the prokaryotic species. Based on specific target sequences, such studies represent variations and allow identification of similarities or dissimilarities in organisms. With the advent of completely sequenced genomes and accumulation of information on whole prokaryotic genomes, phylogenetic reconstructions should be considered more reliable if they are ideally based on entire genomes to resolve phylogenetic interest. We applied phylogenomics approaches taking into account completely sequenced cyanobacterial genomes to reconstruct underlying species that represented major taxonomic classes and belonged to distinctly different habitats (freshwater, marine, soils, and rocks). We d
