Increased Biosynthetic Gene Dosage in a Genome-Reduced Defensive Bacterial Symbiont
A symbiotic lifestyle frequently results in genome reduction in bacteria; the isolation of small populations promotes genetic drift and the fixation of deletions and deleterious mutations over time. Transitions in lifestyle, including host restriction or adaptation to an intracellular habitat, are t...
