Estimating the extent of horizontal gene transfer in metagenomic sequences
BACKGROUND: Although the extent of horizontal gene transfer (HGT) in complete genomes has been widely studied, its influence in the evolution of natural communities of prokaryotes remains unknown. The availability of metagenomic sequences allows us to address the study of global patterns of prokaryo...
