Definitions:

Horizontal Gene Transfer

The (nonsexual) lateral transfer of genetic material from one genome to another within a species or from one species to another species at any taxonomic level, including from a species in one domain to a species in another domain. Compare with vertical gene transfer.

Gene Swapping

The exchange of genetic material between different organisms, leading to genetic variation, often seen in bacteria through horizontal gene transfer.

Genome

The complete set of genetic material present in a cell or organism, including all of its genes.

Evolutionary Divergence

The process by which two or more populations of an ancestral species accumulate independent genetic changes (mutations) over time, often leading to speciation.
