Pyrosequencing analysis of endosymbiont population structure: co‐occurrence of divergent symbiont lineages in a single vesicomyid host clam

Summary Bacteria–eukaryote endosymbioses are perhaps the most pervasive co‐evolutionary associations in nature. Here, intracellular chemosynthetic symbionts of deep‐sea clams (Vesicomyidae) were analysed by amplicon pyrosequencing to explore how symbiont transmission mode affects the genetic diversi...
