Evolutionary relationships of Fusobacterium nucleatum based on phylogenetic analysis and comparative genomics

Alex Mira, Ravindra Pushker, Boris A Legault, David Moreira, Francisco Rodríguez-Valera BMC Evolutionary Biology 2004, 4:50 (26 November 2004)

Fusobacteria are related to Firmicutes, but over a third of the genes may have been transferred from bacteria within the dental plaque, with many of the genes for cell wall components apparently deriving from proteobacteria.
