The phylogeny of T3SS reflects host-cell type. The T3SS detected in O. tauri microbiomes were integrated in a reference phylogeny of the T3SS (Abby and Rocha, 2012). T3SS phylogeny shows a diversification of T3SS into host-cell adapted sub-types: animal associated, and plant associated (“ecology” panel, and column). While most of these sub-types are mostly involved in pathogenic interactions with plants or animals, some Hrp1 T3SS and all Rhizobiales T3SS are involved in symbiotic associations with plants.
