The study dates the mass diversification of life on Earth to some 260 million years earlier than the paradigm, well before the Cambrian explosion.
Scientists used ancestral thecamoebian lineages to calibrate the phylogenetic tree for plants, algae, fungi, animals and their ancestors.
FAPESP supported the study via a regular research grant and a PhD scholarship.
