Detection of horizontal transfer of individual genes by anomalous oligomer frequencies
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Understanding the history of life requires that we understand the transfer of genetic material across phylogenetic boundaries. Detecting genes that were acquired by means other than vertical descent is a basic step in that process. D...
