A new experimental approach for studying bacterial genomic island evolution identifies island genes with bacterial host-specific expression patterns

BACKGROUND: Genomic islands are regions of bacterial genomes that have been acquired by horizontal transfer and often contain blocks of genes that function together for specific processes. Recently, it has become clear that the impact of genomic islands on the evolution of different bacterial specie...
