Hypothetical model for the evolution of unique rDNAs/rRNAs in AMF. Evolutionary model for the lack of TRSs in AMF and its sequence heterogeneity. The various environmental conditions (e.g., various host species) may lead to the evolution of phenotypic plasticity via multiple types of ribosomes in AMF. If the rDNA is exposed to disruptive selection, rDNA duplication by TRSs and USCR may be non-adaptive because the duplication of particular rDNA types reduces the variety of rDNA types
