| Note(s): |
This study emphasizes the use of several lines of concordant evidence (phylogenetics, basecomposition, transposon sequences) to infer the evolutionary history of particular gene and enzyme sequences, and the results support the idea that genes coding for adaptive traits, e.g. defensive natural products, may be prone to transposition between divergent prokaryotic taxa and genomes.
