3. Horizontal gene transfer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horizontal_gene_transfer

   Horizontal gene transfer is a potential confounding factor in inferring phylogenetic trees based on the sequence of one gene. [163] For example, given two distantly related bacteria that have exchanged a gene a phylogenetic tree including those species will show them to be closely related because that gene is the same even though most other ...

4. Inferring horizontal gene transfer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inferring_horizontal_gene...

   Horizontal gene transfer was first observed in 1928, in Frederick Griffith's experiment: showing that virulence was able to pass from virulent to non-virulent strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae, Griffith demonstrated that genetic information can be horizontally transferred between bacteria via a mechanism known as transformation. [2]

5. Horizontal gene transfer in evolution - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horizontal_gene_transfer...

   This lateral gene transfer occurred also beyond the Darwinian threshold, after heredity or vertical gene transfer was established. [4] [5] "Sequence comparisons suggest recent horizontal transfer of many genes among diverse species including across the boundaries of phylogenetic "domains". Thus determining the phylogenetic history of a species ...

6. Horizontal evolution - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horizontal_evolution

   Horizontal gene transfer, where genes are transferred from one organism to another by means other than genes received from an ancestor [2] It is sometimes used by creationists as a synonym for Microevolution, development of genetic changes below the speciation threshold

7. Plant–fungus horizontal gene transfer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant–fungus_horizontal...

   Fungus–plant-mediated horizontal gene transfer can occur via phagotrophic mechanisms (mediated by phagotrophic eukaryotes) and nonphagotropic mechanisms. Nonphagotrophic mechanisms have been seen in the transmission of transposable elements, plastid-derived endosymbiotic gene transfer, prokaryote-derived gene transfer, Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated DNA transfer, cross-species ...
