Genomic expansion of magnetotactic bacteria reveals an early common origin of magnetotaxis with lineage-specific evolution
The origin and evolution of magnetoreception, which in diverse prokaryotes and protozoa is known as magnetotaxis and enables these microorganisms to detect Earth’s magnetic field for orientation and navigation, is not well understood in evolutionary biology. The only known prokaryotes capable of sen...
