- The two became one organism, an arrangement called endosymbiosis, and swapped some genetic material to create a new hybrid genome.
Derivativesendosymbiont noun ...- Genes have recently been discovered in the nuclear genomes of these that appear to have been introduced by an ancestral endosymbiont.
- Several species of asexual endosymbionts have experienced accelerated rates of molecular evolution relative to their free-living relatives.
endosymbiotic adjective ...- This would be analogous to the process of endosymbiotic gene replacement that now appears to be common.
- This demonstrates that these were originally free-living bacteria that have evolved a stable endosymbiotic relationship with eukaryotic cells.
- In this work, we address the next level of evolution: gene acquisition/replacement related to the endosymbiotic origins of organelles.
