Early genome erosion and internal phage-symbiont-host interaction in the endosymbionts of a cold-seep tubeworm
Summary: Endosymbiosis with chemosynthetic Gammaproteobacteria is widely recognized as an adaptive mechanism of siboglinid tubeworms, yet evolution of these endosymbionts and their driving forces remain elusive. Here, we report a finished endosymbiont genome (HMS1) of the cold-seep tubeworm Scleroli...
