Recent Recombination Events in the Core Genome Are Associated with Adaptive Evolution in Enterococcus faecium

Reasons for the rising clinical impact of the bacterium Enterococcus faecium include the species’ rapid acquisition of adaptive genetic elements. Here, we focused on the impact of recombination on the evolution of E. faecium. We used the recently developed BratNextGen algorithm to detect recombinant...
