Heterogeneity among estimates of the core genome and pan-genome in different pneumococcal populations
2017-05-06
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Understanding the structure of a bacterial population is essential in order to understand bacterial evolution, or which genetic lineages cause disease, or the consequences of perturbations to the bacterial population. Estimating the core genome, the genes common to all or nearly all strains of a species, is an essential component of such analyses. The size and composition of the core genome va...
