Sumario: | We highlight a selection of recent research on computational methods and associated challenges surrounding the prediction of bacterial horizontal gene transfer. This research area continues to face controversy, but is becoming more critical as the importance of horizontal gene transfer in medically and ecologically important prokaryotic evolution is further appreciated. |
