TYPES OF HORIZONTALITY. “In nature, horizontal evolution can occur through species hybridization in eukaryotes, lateral gene transfer in bacteria, recombination and reassortment in viruses, viral integration in eukaryotes, and fusion of genomes of symbiotic species (e.g., mitochondria). These horizontal genetic exchanges create incompatibilities that mischaracterize the species tree.”
