Evolutionary origins of genomic repertoires in bacteria.

PLoS biology - 1 May 2005

Lerat Emmanuelle, Daubin Vincent, Ochman Howard, Moran Nancy A

Abstract excerpt

Explaining the diversity of gene repertoires has been a major problem in modern evolutionary biology. In eukaryotes, this diversity is believed to result mainly from gene duplication and loss, but in prokaryotes, lateral gene transfer (LGT) can also contribute substantially to genome contents. To determine the histories of gene inventories, we conducted an exhaustive analysis of gene phylogenies for all gene...
