An evolutionary analysis of genome expansion and pathogenicity in Escherichia coli
BACKGROUND: There are several studies describing loss of genes through reductive evolution in microbes, but how selective forces are associated with genome expansion due to horizontal gene transfer (HGT) has not received similar attention. The aim of this study was therefore to examine how selective...
