We have found only two examples of LGT of whole-Trp operons, that of trpAa/Ab/B/D • C/Eb/Ea from the enteric lineage to coryneform bacteria and to Helicobacter , as discussed earlier.
The incongruence between the SSU and the ThiF domain trees suggests that Ps-moeZ may have been acquired by P. stutzeri strain KC by lateral gene transfer (LGT) from an ancestor more closely related to mycobacteria and cyanobacteria than to proteobacteria.
Indeed, it has even been asserted that vertical evolutionary patterns of descent might be impossibly masked by rampant events of LGT and that, in fact, instead of bifurcating phylogenetic trees, a reticulate (net-like) pattern exists [ 7, 8, 9].
For example, the initial discovery of "plant-type" AroA II in bacteria led to the assumption of LGT from plant to bacterium.
If correct, this allows the optimistic viewpoint that the complex interplay of vertical gene descent and LGT can be deciphered to yield correct evolutionary histories, provided that sufficiently detailed studies are done.
