The environmental adaptation of acidophilic archaea: promotion of horizontal gene transfer by genomic islands
Abstract Acid mine drainage (AMD) is an extremely acidic leachate highly contaminated with metal ions, yet it harbors a significantly high abundance of archaea. Genomic islands (GIs), as one of the productions of horizontal gene transfer (HGT), play an important role in the environmental adaptation...
