Local genes for local bacteria: evidence of allopatry in the genomes of transatlantic <i>Campylobacter</i> populations
2017-05-19
Abstract excerpt
The genetic structure of bacterial populations can be related to geographical locations of isolation. In some species, there is a strong correlation between geographical distance and genetic distance, which can be caused by different evolutionary mechanisms. Patterns of ancient admixture in Helicobacter pylori can be reconstructed in concordance with past human migration, whereas in Mycobacterium tuberculosis it i...
