Abstract excerpt

Fusobacteria have been associated to different diseases, including colorectal cancer (CRC), but knowledge of which taxonomic groups contribute to specific conditions is incomplete. We analyzed the genetic diversity and relationships within the Fusobacterium genus. We report recent and ancestral recombination in core genes, indicating that fusobacteria have mosaic genomes and emphasizing that taxonomic demarcation...
