Selection on horizontally transferred and duplicated genes in sinorhizobium (ensifer), the root-nodule symbionts of medicago.

Genome biology and evolution - 6 May 2014

Epstein Brendan, Sadowsky Michael J, Tiffin Peter

Abstract excerpt

Structural variation, including variation in gene copy number and presence or absence of genes, is a widespread and important source of genomic variation. We used whole-genome DNA sequences from 48 strains of Sinorhizobium (recently renamed Ensifer), including 20 strains of Sinorhizobium meliloti and 12 strains of S. medicae that were the focus of the analyses, to study the fitness effects of new structural...
