LIFE AS A GENETIC MOSAIC not a tree. “The discovery that a large cluster of genes appears to have jumped directly from one species of fungus to another significantly strengthens the argument that a different metaphor (from the tree of life) such as a mosaic, may be more appropriate. Because most people didn’t believe that such large gene clusters could be transferred horizontally, they haven’t looked for them and they haven’t been found.””
