Plants Steal Genes
Plants Steal Genes unveils the surprising role of horizontal gene transfer (HGT) in plant evolution, demonstrating how plants acquire genes from bacteria, fungi, and other species, rather than solely from their ancestors.
This challenges the traditional "tree of life" concept, suggesting a more interconnected web where genetic information flows laterally.
