Figure 2

Discrimination of cyanobacteria and three algal eukaryotic supergroups (Plantae, Chromalveolates, Excavates/Euglenoids) as based on fatty acid distribution patterns of 373 investigated cyanobacterial and algal strains using Canonical Variates Analysis. The two vectors shown indicate FAs significantly correlated with canonical axis 1. Lines encircle 95% of members of a particular group. Circles, Cyanobacteria; crosses, Plantae; arrowheads, Excavates/Euglenoids; diamonds, Chromalveolates.
