The common ancestor of archaea and eukarya was not an archaeon.
Forterre P. Forterre P. Archaea. 2013;2013:372396. doi: 10.1155/2013/372396. Epub 2013 Nov 17. Archaea. 2013. PMID: 24348094 Free PMC article. Review.
Here, I argue that these analyses are not reliable, and I critically discuss archaeal ancestor scenarios, as well as fusion scenarios for the origin of eukaryotes. ...I propose that the ancestors of archaea (and bacteria) escaped protoeukaryotic predators by invadin …

Vertebrate cranial placodes as evolutionary innovations--the ancestor's tale.
Schlosser G. Schlosser G. Curr Top Dev Biol. 2015;111:235-300. doi: 10.1016/bs.ctdb.2014.11.008. Epub 2015 Jan 20. Curr Top Dev Biol. 2015. PMID: 25662263 Review.
With phylogenetic relationships among the major branches of metazoans now relatively well established, a comparative approach is used to infer, which structures evolved in which lineages and allows us to trace the origin of placodes and their components back from ancestor …

Was our ancestor a hyperthermophilic procaryote?
Xu Y, Glansdorff N. Xu Y, et al. Comp Biochem Physiol A Mol Integr Physiol. 2002 Nov;133(3):677-88. doi: 10.1016/s1095-6433(02)00197-6. Comp Biochem Physiol A Mol Integr Physiol. 2002. PMID: 12443925 Review.
In this paper we critically review the 'classical' model for the emergence of the three domains (Archaea, Bacteria, Eucarya), which presents hyperthermophilic procaryotes as the ancestors of all life on this planet. We come to the conclusion that our last common ancesto …

The universal ancestor.
Woese C. Woese C. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1998 Jun 9;95(12):6854-9. doi: 10.1073/pnas.95.12.6854. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1998. PMID: 9618502 Free PMC article.
A genetic annealing model for the universal ancestor of all extant life is presented; the name of the model derives from its resemblance to physical annealing. ...This communal ancestor has a physical history but not a genealogical one. Over time, this ancestor …

The dispersed archaeal eukaryome and the complex archaeal ancestor of eukaryotes.
Koonin EV, Yutin N. Koonin EV, et al. Cold Spring Harb Perspect Biol. 2014 Apr 1;6(4):a016188. doi: 10.1101/cshperspect.a016188. Cold Spring Harb Perspect Biol. 2014. PMID: 24691961 Free PMC article. Review.
In contrast, the archaeal ancestor of eukaryotes remains elusive, although evidence is accumulating that it could have belonged to a deep lineage within the TACK (Thaumarchaeota, Aigarchaeota, Crenarchaeota, Korarchaeota) superphylum of the Archaea. ...This scenario might …

Generational coexistence and ancestor's inhibition in bacterial populations.
Baquero F, Lemonnier M. Baquero F, et al. FEMS Microbiol Rev. 2009 Sep;33(5):958-67. doi: 10.1111/j.1574-6976.2009.00184.x. Epub 2009 May 7. FEMS Microbiol Rev. 2009. PMID: 19500144 Free article. Review.
Generational coexistence in structured environments raises the possibility of a competition between ancestors and descendents. This type of kin competition, and in particular, the possibility that descendents might actively repress the ancestor's dominance, h …

Life cycle evolution: was the eumetazoan ancestor a holopelagic, planktotrophic gastraea?
Nielsen C. Nielsen C. BMC Evol Biol. 2013 Aug 16;13:171. doi: 10.1186/1471-2148-13-171. BMC Evol Biol. 2013. PMID: 23957497 Free PMC article. Review.
The intercalation theory now proposes a benthic, deposit-feeding gastraea as the bilaterian ancestor with a direct development, and with planktotrophic larvae evolving independently in numerous lineages through specializations of juveniles. ...The evolution of the indirect …

Whence genes in pieces: reconstruction of the exon-intron gene structures of the last eukaryotic common ancestor and other ancestral eukaryotes.
Koonin EV, Csuros M, Rogozin IB. Koonin EV, et al. Wiley Interdiscip Rev RNA. 2013 Jan-Feb;4(1):93-105. doi: 10.1002/wrna.1143. Epub 2012 Nov 8. Wiley Interdiscip Rev RNA. 2013. PMID: 23139082 Review.
Evolutionary reconstructions using maximum likelihood methods suggest intron-rich ancestors for each major group of eukaryotes. For the last common ancestor of animals, the highest intron density of all extant and extinct eukaryotes was inferred, at 120-130% of the …

Her name is "Lucy", our three-million-year-old ancestor.
Shields ED. Shields ED. J Dent Res. 2000 Jan;79(1):13-20. doi: 10.1177/00220345000790010101. J Dent Res. 2000. PMID: 10690655 Review.
Dental anthropology is a key discipline in studies to determine the evolutionary history of our hominid ancestors, to identify the origin and dispersal of modern humans, and to reconstruct the source of observed dental variation. A survey of hominid and modern human evolut …

What is code biology?
Barbieri M. Barbieri M. Biosystems. 2018 Feb;164:1-10. doi: 10.1016/j.biosystems.2017.10.005. Epub 2017 Oct 6. Biosystems. 2018. PMID: 28993248 Review.
The genetic code appeared in a population of primitive systems that has been referred to as the common ancestor, and it has been proposed that three distinct signal processing codes gave origin to the three primary kingdoms of Archaea, Bacteria and Eukarya. After the genet …
