Large-scale comparative genomic ranking of taxonomically restricted genes (TRGs) in bacterial and archaeal genomes.

Large-scale comparative genomic ranking of taxonomically restricted genes (TRGs) in bacterial and archaeal genomes.

BACKGROUND: Lineage-specific, or taxonomically restricted genes (TRGs), especially those that are species and strain-specific, are of special interest because they are expected to play a role in defining exclusive ecological adaptations to particular niches. Despite this, they are relatively poorly...
