How can you use “hgt” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Massive HGT between archaea and bacteria, particularly hyperthermophiles, has been suggested by genome comparisons [ 20, 21, 22, 23, 24].
The most extensively studied HGT candidates are four genes encoding β-1,4-endoglucanase, initially identified in the cyst nematodes G. rostochiensis and H. glycines [ 18 19 ] . These four genes (NemaGene Contig IDs MI00537, MI01011, MI01381 and MI01842) [ 30 ] appear to define two sets of paralogs formed before divergence of the cyst and root-knot nematodes.
Despite the suggestion of HGT and duplication events, the arsC phylogeny suggests that arsenate reductase is an evolutionarily old enzyme, a hypothesis that was recently suggested for arsenite oxidase [ 38 ] . This is the first phylogenetic analysis of an arsenic redox active gene to include all three domains and the Archaea and Bacteria were clearly separated, with S. cerevisiae subsequently branching from Archaea.
The analyses summarized in Table 2also illustrate that interphylum HGT, while turning genomes into mosaics, has not eroded all associations between bacterial phyla.
Similar observations of reproducible associations between phyla based on genome wide comparisons were recently published [ 44 45 46 47 ] . However, at present it cannot be decided to what extent these closer associations reflects shared ancestry or are due to preferred HGT [ 19 ] .
