Abstract
Horizontal gene transfer(HGT)is a universal phenomenon in the biosphere but the phenomenon of horizontal gene transfer from eukaryotes transfer to prokaryotes is relatively rare.The paper reviews universality of horizontal gene transfer and research status in horizontal gene transfer from eukaryote to prokaryote(bacteria,algae and so on),analyzes the reasons of lower HGT event frequency and looks forward its research prospects based on published literature at home and abroad.
