Comparative metagenomics evidence distinct trends of genome evolution between sponge-dwelling bacteria and their pelagic counterparts
2020-09-01
Abstract excerpt
Prokaryotic associations with sponges are among the oldest host-microbiome relationships on Earth. In this study, we investigated how bacteria from several phyla have independently adapted to the sponge interior by comparing metagenome-assembled genomes of sponge-dwelling and pelagic bacteria sourced from broad phylogenetic and geographic samplings. We discovered that sponge-dwelling bacteria have more energetical...
