Functional equivalence and evolutionary convergence in complex communities of microbial sponge symbionts.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 3 Jul 2012

Fan Lu, Reynolds David, Liu Michael, Stark Manuel, Kjelleberg Staffan, Webster Nicole S, Thomas Torsten

Abstract excerpt

Microorganisms often form symbiotic relationships with eukaryotes, and the complexity of these relationships can range from those with one single dominant symbiont to associations with hundreds of symbiont species. Microbial symbionts occupying equivalent niches in different eukaryotic hosts may...
