1 INTRODUCTION Transitions in habitat are a critical ecological cog in the evolutionary engine of species diversification. Populations that establish in novel environments are invariably exposed to unique selection regimes that promote adaptive differentiation (e.g. Brewer et al., 2015; Lescak et al., 2015; McGee & Wainwright, 2013; Rainey & Travisano, 1998; Rosenblum, 2006).

AbstractThe genomes of living lungfishes can inform on the molecular-developmental basis of the Devonian sarcopterygian fish–tetrapod transition. We de novo sequenced the genomes of the African (Protopterus annectens) and South American lungfishes (Lepidosiren paradoxa).

INTRODUCTION Glutamate is the major amino group donor in any living organism due to delivering 80–88% of the nitrogen for the synthesis of nitrogen-containing molecules (Ikeda et al., 1996; Magasanik, 1996, 2003; Wohlheuter et al., 1973). Beside its role as a precursor for the synthesis of the glutamate family amino acids, such as glutamine, arginine, and proline, it is also directly incorporated into proteins.

1 INTRODUCTION The diversification of protein families is one of the major drivers in the evolution of biological complexity. Cytochrome P450 (CYP450s or CYPs) is one of the largest protein families, with a current number of 443,000 proteins across the tree of life and particularly abundant in eukaryotes (Sezutsu et al., 2013; Richter et al., 2022).

The early-branching holomycotan phylum Rozellomycota (rozellids) was proposed based on a few formally described species of the genus Rozella as well as on environmental sequences obtained by metabarcoding or by fluorescence in situ hybridizations (FISH) combined with single-cell sequencing [1,–7], initially named Cryptomycota [8].
