Computational archaeology of the Pristionchus pacificus genome reveals evidence of horizontal gene transfers from insects

BACKGROUND: The recent sequencing of nematode genomes has laid the basis for comparative genomics approaches to study the impact of horizontal gene transfer (HGT) on the adaptation to new environments and the evolution of parasitism. In the beetle associated nematode Pristionchus pacificus HGT event...
