Opis:

This is a image of the more or less current tree of life showing the 5 kingdoms and how genetic inheritance is now thought to be not exactly vertical but also includes horizontal gene inheritance via at least virus infection and maybe other routes such as the incorporation of mitochondria and plastids as symbiotic partners within Eukaryote cells.

Sent this E-mail to Dr. Smets - Dear Dr. Smets,

I enjoyed finding yours and Tamar Barkay image, http://www.nature.com/nrmicro/journal/v3/n9/images/nrmicro1253-f1.gif, from the 2005 Nature article on horizontal gene transfers which I used for a noncommercial web reference.

I was wondering if you and Ms. Barkay own the rights to the image and subsequently be interested in submitting it for use in the Wikipedia article on your subject: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horizontal_gene_transfer. I think it would be very helpful to the subject.

If not or if Nature owns the image rights, do you have any similar image that can be donated to Wikipedia or Wikimedia Commons or given over to the public domain?...Sincerely,Paul D Pruitt

He replied - sorry for the slow reply.

I have the following figure which was made internally by us, in preparation for the Nat Reviews article. With proper citation, this can be used. Regards, barth Barth F. Smets, Ph.D.
