Trophic Specialization Results in Genomic Reduction in Free-Living Marine <italic toggle="yes">Idiomarina</italic> Bacteria

ABSTRACT The streamlining hypothesis is generally used to explain the genomic reduction events related to the small genome size of free-living bacteria like marine bacteria SAR11. However, our current understanding of the correlation between bacterial genome size and environmental adaptation relies...
