Rapid evolution of a large structural polymorphism during a bacterial epidemic.

Abstract excerpt

The field of population genetics is primarily focused on simple genetic variants such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), small insertions or deletions (INDELs), and copy-number variants (CNVs). However, large-scale genomic variants are beginning to undergo increased scrutiny as new sequencing methods facilitate their discovery. Here, we report an unusually large and highly variable structural feature in...
