Abstract excerpt
Prokaryotic evolution takes place within and between genomes, when significant amounts of genes are transferred and recombined between interacting genetic partners. These non-tree-like evolutionary processes, intertwined with events of vertical descent, lead to a massive production of unrooted trees in which branches, nodes and groupings have different biological meanings than for the rooted trees usually studied...
