Genomic Signatures of Distributive Conjugal Transfer among Mycobacteria

Distributive conjugal transfer (DCT) is a newly described mechanism of lateral gene transfer (LGT) that results in a mosaic transconjugant structure, similar to the products of meiosis. We have tested popular LGT detection methods on whole-genome sequence data from experimental DCT transconjugants a...
