10 lis 2022 · We identified which of these bacterial species are truly clonal, classified bacteria into biological species by redefining species boundaries based on gene flow, and analyzed the patterns of gene flow between species (i.e., introgression).
27 sty 2024 · Examining horizontal gene transfer in microbial communities. A global survey of prokaryotic genomes reveals the eco-evolutionary pressures driving horizontal gene transfer. Quantifying the...
15 maj 2017 · The major mechanisms of DNA transfer in bacteria — natural transformation, transduction and conjugation — have been described in detail (Box 2). Although mechanistic insights in archaea are ...
1 mar 2013 · Here we synthesize recent literature demonstrating the importance of habitat and niche in structuring horizontal gene transfer. This leads to a model of ecological speciation via gradual genetic isolation triggered by differential habitat-association of nascent populations.
12 lis 2021 · Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is arguably the most conspicuous feature of bacterial evolution. Evidence for HGT is found in most bacterial genomes.
26 wrz 2016 · This minireview describes some recent systematic studies providing illustrative examples that involve the acquisition and alteration of genetic information for molecular innovation by bacteria in well-defined environments.
16 lut 2024 · As individuals from different populations interbreed, they exchange genetic material, influencing the genetic composition of both populations. Alternatively, it can occur between two species, from bacteria or viruses to higher organisms, through horizontal or lateral gene transfer (HGT or LGT).
