Genome dynamics was investigated within natural populations of the soil bacterium Streptomyces. The exploration of a set of closely related strains isolated from micro-habitats of a forest soil exhibited a strong diversity of the terminal structures of the linear chromosome, i.e. terminal inverted repeats (TIRs). Large insertions, deletions and translocations could be observed along with evidence of transfer...
