The Divided Bacterial Genome: Structure, Function, and Evolution.

Microbiology and molecular biology reviews : MMBR - 1 Sept 2017

diCenzo George C, Finan Turlough M

Abstract excerpt

Approximately 10% of bacterial genomes are split between two or more large DNA fragments, a genome architecture referred to as a multipartite genome. This multipartite organization is found in many important organisms, including plant symbionts, such as the nitrogen-fixing rhizobia, and plant, animal, and human pathogens, including the genera Brucella, Vibrio, and Burkholderia. The availability of many complete...
