Horizontal gene transfer of a bacterial insect toxin gene into the Epichloë fungal symbionts of grasses
Horizontal gene transfer is recognized as an important factor in genome evolution, particularly when the newly acquired gene confers a new capability to the recipient species. We identified a gene similar to the makes caterpillars floppy (mcf1 and mcf2) insect toxin genes in Photorhabdus, bacterial...
