You mean to tell me that there is absolutely no horizontal/lateral gene transfer? I think there must be a little of it going on for sure somewhere....
I mean look at all the experiments food engineers are running. What about retroviruses? There must be a ton of other similar such going on, no?
It is happening with human engineered species. My favorite is the Glofish. It carries a copy of the jellyfish GFP gene which causes it to fluoresce in UV light. I haven't dug into the history behind the Glofish, but I strongly suspect that it has it's roots in the basic research lab. GFP reporter genes are common place in evo-devo studies that study transcription factors. Anyway . . .
As to retroviruses, it comes close. However, this does not involve transfer of DNA from one species to the next but it does cause divergent species to share DNA not found in their common ancestor. There is also the case of mitochondrial DNA making it's way into the host genome. If you still consider mitochondria to be an endosymbiot this may count, but barely.
If this were going on it would be pretty easy to spot given the wealth of genomic data that is out there.
