Sequence and functional analyses of Haemophilusspp. genomic islands
8 Nov 2007
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: A major part of horizontal gene transfer that contributes to the diversification and adaptation of bacteria is facilitated by genomic islands. The evolution of these islands is poorly understood. Some progress was made with the identification of a set of phylogenetically related genomic islands among the Proteobacteria, recognized from the investigation of the evolutionary origins of a Haemophilus...
