Endomicrobia in termite guts: symbionts within a symbiont (Phylogeny, cospeciation with host flagellates, and preliminary genome analysis)

"Endomicrobia" are intracellular symbionts of termite gut flagellates that represent a distinct lineage in the novel bacterial phylum Termite Group I (TG-1). The evolutionary history of "Endomicrobia" with respect to their symbiosis with host flagellates was investigated using ph...
