Horizontal gene transfer dynamics and distribution of fitness effects during microbial in silico evolution

BACKGROUND: Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is a process that facilitates the transfer of genetic material between organisms that are not directly related, and thus can affect both the rate of evolution and emergence of traits. Recent phylogenetic studies reveal HGT events are likely ubiquitous in th...
