A, A phylogenetic tree of 161 different HOX sequences was calculated. HOXs were aligned with 100 iterations with clustal omega. Afterwards the sequences were trimmed by trimAL with gap threshold 0.8 and conservation percentage of 70%. The tree was calculated with PhyML. Akaike Information Criterion, SPR, 200 bootstrap was used. Visualization was done in iTOL. Within the two fungal clades two lichen-derived sequences are shaded in dark blue.
