This four year study is designed to accumulate and examine external morphological, cytological, and developmental data from representatives of different dinoflagellate groups. The dinoflagellate algae are very peculiar organisms that possess several more variations in their cells than do the majority of eukaryotic algae and protozoa. Specifically, we propose to test traditional systematic concepts of the dinoflagellates with these data via cladistic analyses of the data we have at hand, those from collaborative laboratories, and those we propose to obtain. These data will also allow us to test current and previous opinion concerning the natural relationships of the dinoflagellates and the other protistan groups. This proposal represents one of the first integrative approaches toward deciphering the affinities of the dinoflagellates. Another important aspect of the proposed studies is to investigate the nature of peculiar dinoflagellates found only from remote marine and freshwater locations in North America and to compare these taxa with those from culture collections.

这项为期四年的研究旨在积累和研究外部 形态学、细胞学和发育数据， 不同甲藻群的代表。 的 甲藻是一种非常特殊的生物， 它们的细胞中的变异比大多数 真核藻类和原生动物。 具体来说，我们建议测试 传统的系统概念的腰鞭毛虫与这些 通过对我们手头的数据进行支序分析， 合作实验室，以及我们建议获得的。 这些 数据也将使我们能够测试当前和以前的意见 关于腰鞭毛虫和 其他原生生物群。 这项建议是第一批 综合的方法来破译的亲和力 腰鞭毛虫 拟议研究的另一个重要方面是 是为了研究只发现于 来自北美偏远的海洋和淡水地区， 将这些分类群与文化收藏品中的分类群进行比较。
