The new tree of eukaryotes
For 15 years, the eukaryote Tree of Life (eToL) has been divided into five to eight major
grou**s, known as 'supergroups'. However, the tree has been profoundly rearranged …

Cryptic and abundant marine viruses at the evolutionary origins of Earth's RNA virome
Whereas DNA viruses are known to be abundant, diverse, and commonly key ecosystem
players, RNA viruses are insufficiently studied outside disease settings. In this study, we …
