Abstract

Highlights: [•] The evolution of Cyt b genes was systemically studied. [•] Eukaryotic Cyt b genes originated from an ancient prokaryotic gene. [•] Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) from Fungi to Chromista. [•] Eukaryotic Cyt b introns were obtained after the endosymbiosis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
