Conservation of transcriptional elements in the obligate symbiont of the whitefly Bemisia tabaci
Background Bacterial symbiosis is widespread in arthropods, especially in insects. Some of the symbionts undergo a long-term co-evolution with the host, resulting in massive genome decay. One particular consequence of genome decay is thought to be the elimination of transcriptional elements within b...
