Phylogenetic Evidence for Lateral Gene Transfer in the Intestine of Marine Iguanas

BACKGROUND: Lateral gene transfer (LGT) appears to promote genotypic and phenotypic variation in microbial communities in a range of environments, including the mammalian intestine. However, the extent and mechanisms of LGT in intestinal microbial communities of non-mammalian hosts remains poorly un...
