Lateral gene transfer as a support for the tree of life
Lateral gene transfer as a support for the tree of life is a scholarly work by Vincent Daubin, Manolo Gouy, Sophie S Abby, and Éric Tannier, published in 2012 in ''Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America''. The main subjects of the publication include genome, RNA sequencing, gene, genetics, evolutionary biology, gene family, phylum, horizontal gene transfer, tree, biology, phylogenetic tree, tree of life, Phylogenetic network, ribosome, Marine microorganism, and phylogenetics. The authors also find that LGT brings an abundant signal on the location of the root of species trees, which has been previously overlooked.
