Evolutionary patterns in prokaryotic genomes.

Current opinion in microbiology - 1 Oct 2008

Rocha Eduardo Pc

Abstract excerpt

Prokaryotic genomics is shifting towards comparative approaches to unravel how and why genomes change over time. Both phylogenetic and population genetics approaches are required to dissect the relative roles of selection and drift under these conditions. Lineages evolve adaptively by selection of changes in extant genomes and the way this occurs is being explored from a systemic and evolutionary perspective to...
