Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The gene-specific sweep is a selection process where an advantageous mutation along with the nearby neutral sites in a gene region increases the frequency in the population. It has been demonstrated to play important roles in ecological differentiation or phenotypic divergence in microbial populations. Therefore, identifying gene-specific sweeps in microorganisms will not only provide insights into...
