Evolutionary Timeline and Genomic Plasticity Underlying the Lifestyle Diversity in <italic toggle="yes">Rhizobiales</italic>

ABSTRACT Members of the order Rhizobiales include those capable of nitrogen fixation in nodules as well as pathogens of animals and plants. This lifestyle diversity has important implications for agricultural and medical research. Leveraging large-scale genomic data, we infer that Rhizobiales origin...
