Massive Genomic Decay in Serratia symbiotica, a Recently Evolved Symbiont of Aphids
All vertically transmitted bacterial symbionts undergo a process of genome reduction over time, resulting in tiny, gene-dense genomes. Comparison of genomes of ancient bacterial symbionts gives only limited information about the early stages in the transition from a free-living to symbiotic lifestyl...
