Horizontal gene transfer in plants [PDF]
Functional & Integrative Genomics, 2013 Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) describes the transmission of genetic material across species boundaries. HGT often occurs in microbic and eukaryotic genomes. However, the pathways by which HGTs occur in multicellular eukaryotes, especially in plants, are not well understood. We systematically summarized more than ten possible pathways for HGT.

Horizontal gene transfer in the phytosphere [PDF]
New Phytologist, 2003 SummaryHere, the ecological aspects of gene transfer processes between bacteria in the phytosphere are examined in the context of emerging evidence for the dominant role that horizontal gene transfer (HGT) has played in the evolutionary shaping of bacterial communities.

Horizontal gene transfer for recombining graphs [PDF]
Genetic Programming and Evolvable Machines, 2020 AbstractWe introduce a form of neutral horizontal gene transfer (HGT) to evolving graphs by graph programming (EGGP). We introduce the$$\mu \times \lambda$$μ×λevolutionary algorithm (EA), where$$\mu$$μparents each produce$$\lambda$$λchildren who compete only with their parents.

Improved prediction of shell side heat transfer in horizontal evaporative shell and tube heat exchangers [PDF]
, 2008 This paper presents an improved prediction method for the heat transfer and pressure drop in the shell side of a horizontal shell and tube evaporator. The results from an experimental test program are used in which a wide range of evaporating two-phase ...

Widespread of horizontal gene transfer in the human genome
BMC Genomics, 2017 Background A fundamental concept in biology is that heritable material is passed from parents to offspring, a process called vertical gene transfer. An alternative mechanism of gene acquisition is through horizontal gene transfer (HGT), which involves ...

Extensive horizontal gene transfer during Staphylococcus aureus co-colonization in vivo. [PDF]
, 2014 Staphylococcus aureus is a commensal and major pathogen of humans and animals. Comparative genomics of S. aureus populations suggests that colonization of different host species is associated with carriage of mobile genetic elements (MGE), particularly ...

Evolving graphs with horizontal gene transfer [PDF]
Proceedings of the Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference, 2019 We introduce a form of neutral Horizontal Gene Transfer (HGT) to Evolving Graphs by Graph Programming (EGGP). We introduce the µ × λ evolutionary algorithm, where µ parents each produce λ children who compete with only their parents. HGT events then copy the entire active component of one surviving parent into the inactive component of another parent ...

Staphylococcus aureus temperate bacteriophage: carriage and horizontal gene transfer is lineage associated. [PDF]
, 2012 Staphylococcus aureus is a major cause of human and animal infections. Bacteriophage are a class of mobile genetic element (MGE) that carry virulence genes and disseminate them horizontally, including Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL), the immune evasion

Detecting horizontal gene transfer: a probabilistic approach
BMC Genomics, 2020 Background Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is the event of a DNA sequence being transferred between species not by inheritance. HGT is a crucial factor in prokaryotic evolution and is a significant source for genomic novelty resulting in antibiotic ...
