This manuscript describes an important finding of the transcriptional control of a chimeric gene transfer agents (GTA) cluster in Bartonella by a processive anti-termination factor (BrrG). The ...

"We were also able to demonstrate that horizontal gene transfer, a phenomenon that describes the incorporation of foreign genes from bacteria into the genome, is quite common in leaf beetles.

Key findings highlight the role of horizontal gene transfer, the incorporation of foreign bacterial genetic material into the beetle genome, which is thought to be the result of earlier symbioses.

"We were also able to demonstrate that horizontal gene transfer, a phenomenon that describes the incorporation of foreign genes from bacteria into the genome, is quite common in leaf beetles.

Mites have survived for millions of years without sexual reproduction. Researchers have now investigated how these tiny ...

With more than 50,000 described species, the leaf beetle family is distributed worldwide and represents about a quarter of the species diversity of all herbivores. Leaf beetles can be found to feed on ...

This manuscript offers valuable theoretical predictions on how horizontal gene transfer (HGT) can lead to alternative stable states in microbial communities. Using a modeling framework, solid ...

An international research team has discovered various mechanisms in asexual mites that generate genetic diversity and thus ...

To see the previous version neoHGT1, you may find it here. neoHGT can predict the horizontal/lateral gene transfer (HGT) for species of interest. This open-source project is based on HGTector ...

We proposed a highly versatile two-step transfer learning pipeline for predicting the gene signature defining the intrinsic ... shear_range = 0.05, horizontal_flip = True, vertical_flip = True, ...
