Comparative Genomic Analysis of Acanthamoeba Endosymbionts Highlights the Role of Amoebae as a “Melting Pot” Shaping the Rickettsiales Evolution

Amoebae have been considered as a genetic “melting pot” for its symbionts, facilitating genetic exchanges of the bacteria that co-inhabit the same host. To test the “melting pot” hypothesis, we analyzed six genomes of amoeba endosymbionts within Rickettsiales, four of which belong to Holosporaceae f...
