Washington [US], July 20 (ANI): Through horizontal gene transfer, microorganisms and plants may have provided insects an evolutionary advantage hundreds of millions of years ago. More than 1,400 genes from 218 different insect species, including butterflies and moths, are reported to have come from bacteria, viruses, fungus, and plant sources. The study suggested that these genes may have been crucial for insect evolution since they enabled them to acquire advantageous qualities in growth, feeding, mating behaviour, and environmental adaption.
