The GC Skew Index: A Measure of Genomic Compositional Asymmetry and the Degree of Replicational Selection
Circular bacterial chromosomes have highly polarized nucleotide composition in the two replichores, and this genomic strand asymmetry can be visualized using GC skew graphs. Here we propose and discuss the GC skew index (GCSI) for the quantification of genomic compositional skew, which combines a no...
