Phylogenetic diversity of nitrogen fixation genes in the symbiotic microbial community in the gut of diverse termites.
Nitrogen fixation by the microorganisms in the gut of termites is one of the crucial aspects of symbiosis, since termites usually thrive on a nitrogen-poor diet. The phylogenetic diversity of the nitrogen-fixing organisms within the symbiotic community in the guts of various termite species was investigated without culturing the resident microorganisms. A portion of the dinitrogenase reductase ...
متن کاملModularized Evolution in Archaeal Methanogens Phylogenetic Forest
Methanogens are methane-producing archaea that plays a key role in the global carbon cycle. To date, the evolutionary history of methanogens and closely related nonmethanogen species remains unresolved among studies conducted upon different genetic markers, attributing to horizontal gene transfers (HGTs). With an effort to decipher both congruent and conflicting evolutionary events, reconstruct...
متن کاملCoevolution of symbiotic systems of termites and their gut microorganisms
Coevolution of the symbiotic systems of termites is investigated by comparing the phylogeny of the gut microorganisms among diverse termites. Some major constituents of the gut community, such as Treponema-like spirochetes and the Bacteroides group, showed complex evolutionary history due to their multiple phylogenetic positions. Groups of methanogenic archaea in the guts are distinct between l...
متن کاملPhylogenetic and cophylogenetic relationships of entomopathogenic nematodes (Heterorhabditis: Rhabditida) and their symbiotic bacteria (Photorhabdus: Enterobacteriaceae).
Mutualistic association between entomopathogenic Photorhabdus bacteria and Heterorhabditis nematodes represents one of the emerging model systems in symbiosis studies, yet little is known about this partnership from a coevolutionary perspective. Herein, we investigated phylogenetic and cophylogenetic relationships of Heterorhabditis and Photorhabdus strains using molecular markers Internal Tran...
