Recombination shapes the natural population structure of the hyperthermophilic archaeon Sulfolobus islandicus.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Dec 2005

Whitaker Rachel J, Grogan Dennis W, Taylor John W

Abstract excerpt

Although microorganisms make up the preponderance of the biodiversity on Earth, the ecological and evolutionary factors that structure microbial populations are not well understood. We investigated the genetic structure of a thermoacidophilic crenarchaeal species, Sulfolobus islandicus, using multilocus sequence analysis of six variable protein-coding loci on a set of 60 isolates from the Mutnovsky region of...
