Role of Horizontal Gene Transfer in the Evolution of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Virulence.

Genome dynamics - 1 Jan 2009

Qiu X, Kulasekara B R, Lory S

Abstract excerpt

The opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa causes serious infections in immunocompromised patients and individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF). It is one of the most versatile organisms as illustrated by its ability to occupy a wide range of environmental niches. Comparative genomic analysis suggests that horizontal gene transfer (HGT) plays a significant role in determining the genetic repertoire of each...
