An acquisition account of genomic islands based on genome signature comparisons
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Recent analyses of prokaryotic genome sequences have demonstrated the important force horizontal gene transfer constitutes in genome evolution. Horizontally acquired sequences are detectable by, among others, their dinucleotide compo...
