- W2586159524 abstract "Delineation of species is fundamental to organizing and understanding biological diversity. The most widely applied criterion for distinguishing species is the Biological Species Concept (BSC), which defines species as groups of interbreeding individuals that remain reproductively isolated from other such groups. The BSC has broad appeal; however, many organisms, most notably asexual lineages, cannot be classified according to the BSC. Despite their exclusively asexual mode of reproduction, Bacteria and Archaea can transfer and exchange genes though homologous recombination. Here we show that barriers to homologous gene exchange define biological species in prokaryotes with the same efficacy as in sexual eukaryotes. By analyzing the impact of recombination on the polymorphisms in thousands of genome sequences, we find that over half of named bacterial species undergo continuous recombination among sequenced constituents, indicative of true biological species. However, nearly a quarter of named bacterial species show sharp discontinuities and comprise multiple biological species. These interruptions of gene flow are not a simple function of genome identity, indicating that bacterial speciation does not uniformly proceed by the gradual divergence of genome sequences. The same genomic approach based on recombinant polymorphisms retrieves known species boundaries in sexually reproducing eukaryotes. Thus, a single biological species definition based on gene flow, once thought to be limited only to sexually reproducing organisms, is applicable to all cellular lifeforms." @default.
