Pervasive acquisition of CRISPR memory driven by inter-species mating of archaea can limit gene transfer and influence speciation

CRISPR-Cas systems provide prokaryotes with sequence-specific immunity against viruses and plasmids, based on DNA acquired from these invaders, known as spacers. Surprisingly, many archaea possess spacers that match chromosomal genes of related species, including those encoding core housekeeping gen...
