The phrase ''horizontal evolution'' is used in evolutionary biology to refer to: * Concerted evolution, whereby individual members of a DNA family within one species are more closely related to each other than to members of the same type of DNA family in other species;〔EG: ''"Primary sequence of baboon CR1 demonstrates concerted evolution within the CR1 gene"'', Clemenza et al. 〕 * Horizontal gene transfer, where genes are transferred from one organism to another by means other than genes received from an ancestor〔EG: ''"Evolution of Aminoacyl-tRNA Synthetases—Analysis of Unique Domain Architectures and Phylogenetic Trees Reveals a Complex History of Horizontal Gene Transfer Events"'', Wolf et al. 〕 It is sometimes used by creationists as a synonym for * Microevolution, development of genetic changes below the speciation threshold 〔EG: (''"The Microwave of Evolution"'' ), Henry Morris, Institute for Creation Research〕 ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Horizontal evolution」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
