Inferring horizontal gene transfer.
PLoS Computational Biology, 2015 Horizontal or Lateral Gene Transfer (HGT or LGT) is the transmission of portions of genomic DNA between organisms through a process decoupled from vertical inheritance.

Horizontal gene transfer in chromalveolates [PDF]
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2007 Background Horizontal gene transfer (HGT), the non-genealogical transfer of genetic material between different organisms, is considered a potentially important mechanism of genome evolution in eukaryotes. Using phylogenomic analyses of expressed sequence

, 2009 Phylogenomic methods can be used to investigate the tangled evolutionary relationships among genomes. Building ‘all the trees of all the genes’ can potentially identify common pathways of horizontal gene transfer (HGT) among taxa at varying levels of ...

Predicting horizontal gene transfers with perfect transfer networks
Algorithms for Molecular BiologyBackground Horizontal gene transfer inference approaches are usually based on gene sequences: parametric methods search for patterns that deviate from a particular genomic signature, while phylogenetic methods use sequences to reconstruct the gene and ...

Horizontal Gene Transfers in Plants [PDF]
Life, 2021 In plants, as in all eukaryotes, the vertical transmission of genetic information through reproduction ensures the maintenance of the integrity of species. However, many reports over the past few years have clearly shown that horizontal gene transfers, referred to as HGTs (the interspecific transmission of genetic information across reproductive ...

Indirect identification of horizontal gene transfer [PDF]
Journal of Mathematical Biology, 2021 AbstractSeveral implicit methods to infer horizontal gene transfer (HGT) focus on pairs of genes that have diverged only after the divergence of the two species in which the genes reside. This situation defines the edge set of a graph, the later-divergence-time (LDT) graph, whose vertices correspond to genes colored by their species.

Horizontal gene transfer in plants [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2006 Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) has played a major role in bacterial evolution and is fairly common in certain unicellular eukaryotes. However, the prevalence and importance of HGT in the evolution of multicellular eukaryotes remain unclear. Recent studies indicate that plant mitochondrial genomes are unusually active in HGT relative to all other ...

Enhanced visualisation of complex thermofluid data: Vertical and horizontal combined convection and microscale heat transfer cases [PDF]
, 2000 Copyright @ 2000 UITIn general, convective heat transfer is an 'n-dimensional' problem where n is well in excess of 3 for steady flows. Traditionally, the method of dimensional analysis results in a small number of dimensionless groups.
