Horizontal gene transfer from bacteria has enabled the plant-parasitic nematode [i]Globodera pallida[/i] to feed on host-derived sucrose

Danchin, Etienne G.J. Guzeeva, Elena A. Mantelin, Sophie

The evolution of plant-parasitic nematodes (PPN) is unusual in that these organisms have acquired a range of genes from bacteria via horizontal gene transfer. The proteins encoded by most of these genes are involved in metabolism of various components of the plant cell wall during invasion of the host. Recent genome sequencing projects for PPN...
