Analysis of argonaute orthologs. a A rooted phylogenetic tree of argonaute orthologs based on 17 microsporidian species. The tree was constructed on protein sequences of the argonaute orthologs based on maximum clade credibility with Mr Bayes. Percent bootstrap values are indicated at the nodes. The scale for the branch length is shown at the bottom. b A schematic representation of the position of conserved domains Piwi-like and PAZ are mapped onto the multiple sequence alignment
