Extensive Thioautotrophic Gill Endosymbiont Diversity within a Single <italic toggle="yes">Ctena orbiculata</italic> (Bivalvia: Lucinidae) Population and Implications for Defining Host-Symbiont Specificity and Species Recognition
ABSTRACT Seagrass-dwelling members of the bivalve family Lucinidae harbor environmentally acquired gill endosymbionts. According to previous studies, lucinid symbionts potentially represent multiple strains from a single thioautotrophic gammaproteobacterium species. This study utilized genomic- and...
