Abstract

Horizontal gene transfer greatly contributes to the diversification and long-term evolution of green plants. Among these three lineages, green plants are the most diverse and widely distributed, comprising green algae (chlorophytes and charophytes) and land plants ([7]; [3]), both of which are key components of the global environment. The effects of intron acquisition on HGT-derived genes in plants, particularly the mechanisms underlying why and how foreign genes somehow acquired introns in plant genomes, are increasingly becoming areas of intense research.
