Geographical isolation in hot spring cyanobacteria.

Environmental microbiology - 1 Aug 2003

Papke R Thane, Ramsing Niels B, Bateson Mary M, Ward David M

Abstract excerpt

It has been proposed that free-living microorganisms exhibit ubiquitous dispersal, do not form geographically isolated populations and rarely (if ever) speciate via allopatry. We studied island-like hot spring cyanobacterial communities in which geographical isolation should be prominent and detectable if it influences the evolution of bacteria. The genetic diversity of cyanobacteria indigenous to North American,...
