In any event, the probability that two or three origins of multicellularity simply arose by chance within eukaryotes as opposed to prokaryotes is somewhere on the order of 1/4 to 1/2, well below the general standards of statistical validity. ❋ Unknown (2009)
Having been the "start" amino acid in prokaryotes, it would therefore retain this position among their eukaryote descendants, at least for a while (assuming that one believes, like Michael Behe does, in evolutionary homology). ❋ Unknown (2008)

Genes that are widely distributed in prokaryotes have a tremendous opportunity for mutational change, and the evolution of conserved genes must be otherwise greatly constrained. ❋ Unknown (2008)
There is no "C-value paradox" in prokaryotes, for example, as their genomes are small and directly correlated with gene number. ❋ Unknown (2007)
My research work includes studies of restriction and modification enzymes, enzymology of genetic recombination, mechanism of bacterial transformation, and genetic regulation in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. ❋ Unknown (1979)
"And therefore the traditional view of what 'prokaryotes' are has now changed, because 'half' the prokaryotes are actaully closer to eukaryotes that the they are to the other 'half' of the prokaryotes." ❋ Unknown (2006)

Whereas bacterial cells are relatively simple and known as prokaryotes, the newer cellular consortia, known as the eukaryotes, are the building blocks of plant and animal bodies, including our own. ❋ Martin A. Nowak (2011)
If current theory that eukaryotes preceded prokaryotes, that is. ❋ Unknown (2008)
OK, I believe we can find microtubules in prokaryotes. ❋ Unknown (2007)
I've seen Tara's post, and she's quite right, we might have to rename prokaryotes now! ❋ Unknown (2006)
Currently the archaea are classified as prokaryotes since they, like bacteria, lack a true nucleus. ❋ Unknown (2007)
The true extent of HGT in bacteria and archaea (collectively known as prokaryotes) has now been firmly established. ❋ Unknown (2009)
Fusing of ancient microbes reveals new pathway for evolution of life on Earth WASHINGTON - NASA-funded research has found that humans not might be walking on Earth today if not for the ancient fusing of two microscopic, single-celled organisms called prokaryotes 2.5 billion years ago, which reveals a new pathway for the evolution of life on Earth. ❋ Unknown (2009)
"[Lucy Ford] was a dope album, but when [Atmosphere] released [God Loves Ugly], their shit was prokaryote." ❋ Mike (2004)
