Genome-scale rates of evolutionary change in bacteria

2016-08-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Estimating the rates at which bacterial genomes evolve is critical to understanding major evolutionary and ecological processes such as disease emergence, long-term host-pathogen associations, and short-term transmission patterns. The surge in bacterial genomic data sets provides a new opportunity to estimate these rates and reveal the factors that shape bacterial evolutionary dynamics. For many...
