The Roles of Mitochondrion in Intergenomic Gene Transfer in Plants: A Source and a Pool

Intergenomic gene transfer (IGT) is continuous in the evolutionary history of plants. In this field, most studies concentrate on a few related species. Here, we look at IGT from a broader evolutionary perspective, using 24 plants. We discover many IGT events by assessing the data from nuclear, mitoc...
