The MobiChrom project investigates horizontal gene transfer in eukaryotes, specifically focusing on the transfer of entire accessory chromosomes in entomopathogenic fungi. By analyzing the dynamics, mechanisms, and consequences of this transfer, the project aims to enhance understanding of its impact on fungal interact…
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) has significantly shaped the evolution and biology of prokaryotes.
In eukaryotes, however, the dynamics, mechanisms and consequences of HGT are less well understood, mostly due to its comparatively low frequency and especially the lack of experimental model systems.
Recently, I described a model system for studying eukaryotic HGT, consisting of entomopathogenic fungi of the Metarhizium genus.
In this taxon, HGT occurs frequently for entire accessory chromosomes.
