Fun new paper led by @greghurst.bsky.social &co using genomics to show that facultative symbiont genomes get bigger as they adapt to life inside a host (through HGT & loss of CRISPR) before undergoing genome reduction as they become obligate #symbiosky #microsky www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
Genome dynamics across the evolutionary transition to endosymbiosis
Endosymbiosis—where a microbe lives and replicates within a host—is an important contributor to organismal function that has accelerated evolutionary …
