An automated approach for the identification of horizontal gene transfers from complete genomes reveals the rhizome of Rickettsiales

BACKGROUND: Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is considered to be a major force driving the evolutionary history of prokaryotes. HGT is widespread in prokaryotes, contributing to the genomic repertoire of prokaryotic organisms, and is particularly apparent in Rickettsiales genomes. Gene gains from both...
