  1. 1. Phylogenetic analysis of secretion systems in Francisellaceae and Legionellales : Investigating events of intracellularization

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Karl Nyrén; [2021]
    Keywords : Metagenomics; Phylogenetics; Secretion systems; Francisellaceae; Legionellales; Host-adaptation; Evolution; Intacellularization;

    Abstract : Host-adapted bacteria are pathogens that, through evolutionary time and host-adaptive events, acquired the ability to manipulate hosts into assisting their own reproduction and spread.
