Detecting Horizontally Transferred and Essential Genes Based on Dinucleotide Relative Abundance

Various methods have been developed to detect horizontal gene transfer in bacteria, based on anomalous nucleotide composition, assuming that compositional features undergo amelioration in the host genome. Evolutionary theory predicts the inevitability of false positives when essential sequences are...
