520 |a Comparative organelle genome studies of parasites can highlight genetic changes that occur during the transition from a free-living to a parasitic state. Our study focuses on a poorly studied group of red algal parasites, which are often closely related to their red algal hosts and from which they presumably evolved. Most of these parasites are pigmented and some show photosynthetic capacity. Here, we assembled and annotated the complete organelle genomes of the photosynthetic red algal parasite, Pterocladiophila hemisphaerica. The plastid genome is the smallest known red algal plastid genome at 68,701 bp. The plastid genome has many genes missing, including all photosynthesis-related genes. In contrast, the mitochondrial genome is similar in architecture to that of other free-living red algae. Both organelle genomes show elevated mutation rates and significant changes in patterns of selection, measured as dN/dS ratios. This caused phylogenetic analyses, even of multiple aligned proteins, to be unresolved or give contradictory relationships. Full plastid datasets interfered by selected best gene evolution models showed the supported relationship of P. hemisphaerica within the Ceramiales, but the parasite was grouped with support as sister to the Gracilariales when interfered under the GHOST model. Nuclear rDNA showed a supported grouping of the parasite within a clade containing several red algal orders including the Gelidiales. This photosynthetic parasite, which is unable to photosynthesize with its own plastid due to the total loss of all photosynthesis genes, raises intriguing questions on parasite-host organelle genome capabilities and interactions
