DOI: 10.1093/gbe/evac091

Abstract: Abstract Horizontal gene transfers (HGTs) from host or other organisms have been reported in mitochondrial genomes of parasitic plants. Genes transferred in this fashion have usually been found nonfunctional. Several examples of HGT from the… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Molecular Biology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1093/molbev/msw253

Abstract: The higher termites (Termitidae) are keystone species and ecosystem engineers. They have exceptional biomass and play important roles in decomposition of dead plant matter, in soil manipulation, and as the primary food for many animals,… read more here.
