ANALOGY. “Hologenomic evolution is most easily understood by equating a gene in the nuclear genome to a microbe in the microbiome… Evolution for both genes and symbionts is fundamentally a change in population frequency over successive generations, i.e., the fraction of holobionts carrying that particular nuclear allele or microbe.” (Bordenstein and Theis).
