“…This topology is has been explored using a variety of approaches. In this context Sarkar et al (2019) and Sen et al (2019) used unusual phylogenetic approaches. Sarkar et al (2019) selected 100 actinobacteria, including Frankia, and built a phylogenetic tree based on the presence and absence of protein domains.…”

“…The resulting phylogeny clustered the actinobacteria mainly according to their niche rather than their taxonomic classification. Sen et al (2019) reported a phylogenetic analysis based on putative carbohydrate active enzymes (CAZymes) that are capable of breaking complex polysaccharides into simpler forms. Phylogenetic and evolutionary analyses showed that, in symbiotic Frankia strains, CAZymes are evolving slower than the other potentially highly expressed genes, whereas similar genes from asymbiotic Frankia strains showed little variation in their evolutionary constraints compared to other potentially highly expressed genes.…”

It has been 40 years since the first meeting dedicated to Frankia and actinorhizal plants, which was held at Petersham, Massachusetts (reported in Torrey and Tjepkema, 1979). Since then biennial meetings have been organised and held in different venues around the globe (Table 1). The most recent meeting, the ''19th International Meeting on Frankia and Actinorhizal Plants'', organised in Hammamet, Tunisia from 17th to 19th of March, 2018, gathered scientists from Algeria, and Tunisia. The event was a stimulating opportunity for active researchers to share many advances since the previous meeting held in Montpellier, France (Franche et al. 2016) and to discuss new perspectives in this research field.
