Lateral Gene Transfer in a Heavy Metal-Contaminated-Groundwater Microbial Community

Lateral Gene Transfer in a Heavy Metal-Contaminated-Groundwater Microbial Community

ABSTRACT Unraveling the drivers controlling the response and adaptation of biological communities to environmental change, especially anthropogenic activities, is a central but poorly understood issue in ecology and evolution. Comparative genomics studies suggest that lateral gene transfer (LGT) is...
