Horizontally acquired divergent O-antigen contributes to escape from cross-immunity in the classical bordetellae.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) allows for rapid spread of genetic material between species, increasing genetic and phenotypic diversity. Although HGT contributes to adaptation and is widespread in many bacteria, others show little HGT. This study builds on previous work to analyze the evolutionary mechanisms contributing to variation within the locus encoding a prominent antigen of the classical...
