The process of genome shrinkage in the obligate symbiont Buchnera aphidicola

Nancy A Moran, Alex Mira Genome Biology 2001, 2:research0054-research0054.12 (14 November 2001)

To examine the process of genome reduction in symbionts, the tiny genome of the endosymbiont Buchnera aphidicola was compared to a reconstructed larger ancestral genome. On the basis of this comparison, 503 genes were eliminated from the Buchnera genome within syntenic fragments, and 1,403 genes were lost from the gaps between syntenic fragments, probably in connection with genome rearrangements.
