Fig 2. Tanglegrams demonstrating phylogenetic incongruities between separate components of phototrophy pathways, including reaction centers, backbone (bacterio)chlorophyll synthesis, and the BchXYZ complex involved in bacteriochlorophyll synthesis; red lines indicate phyla with distinct branching order in phylogenies on the left and right, likely reflecting independent histories of horizontal gene transfer.
