- Based on 18S rRNA sequences from 110 species including 4 Oikopleuridae, this
- Studies based on 146 genes in 28 species ([[Delsuc et al., 2006|biblio/16495997]])
and then 258 orthologous proteins from 63 species ([[Delsuc et al., 2018|biblio/29653534]])
show that Oikopleuridae is basal to all other tunicates.
+ - “The difference between coding sequences was considerably higher in
+ comparisons between strains of different oceans than within the Bergen gene
+ pool. We ignore whether and how Oikopleura dioica is subdivided into multiple
+ species” ([[Denoeud et al., 2010|biblio/21097902]]).
