Horizontal gene transfer of microbial cellulases into nematode genomes is associated with functional assimilation and gene turnover

BACKGROUND: Natural acquisition of novel genes from other organisms by horizontal or lateral gene transfer is well established for microorganisms. There is now growing evidence that horizontal gene transfer also plays important roles in the evolution of eukaryotes. Genome-sequencing and EST projects...
