This research investigates the evolutionary dynamics of endosymbiotic bacteria, particularly their horizontal transfer between diverse host species. It aims to understand the mechanisms that allow these bacteria to adapt and establish symbiotic relationships.
Endosymbiotic bacteria are usually not infectious, they have been thought to exclusively transfer vertically from the host mother to her offspring.
Consequently we do often observe congruence between the phylogenetic trees of endosymbiotic bacteria and their host species, but not always.
Evidences for the horizontal transfer of endosymbiotic bacteria between highly divergent host species have recently been accumulating, especially from studies in Insects.
