The Dynamics of Lateral Gene Transfer in Genus Leishmania - A Route for Adaptation and Species Diversification
BACKGROUND: The genome of Leishmania major harbours a comparably high proportion of genes of prokaryote origin, acquired by lateral gene transfer (LGT). Some of these are present in closely related trypanosomatids, while some are detected in Leishmania only. We have evaluated the impact and destiny...
