Proposed group of single-celled organisms
Obazoa is a proposed sister clade of Amoebozoa (which together form Amorphea ). The term Obazoa is based on the OBA acronym for O pisthokonta , B reviatea , and A pusomonadidae , the group's three constituent clades .[ 1]
Determining the placement of Breviatea and Apusomonadida and their properties is of interest for the development of the opisthokonts in which the main lineages of animals and fungi emerged.[ 1] The relationships among opisthokonts, breviates and apusomonads are not conclusively resolved (as of 2018), though Breviatea is usually inferred to be the most basal of the three lineages.[ 2] [ 3] [ 4] [ 5] [ 6]
The phylogeny of the Obazoa is shown in the cladogram.[ 6] [ 7] [ 8] [ 9]
