In Silico Gene-Level Evolution Explains Microbial Population Diversity through Differential Gene Mobility

Microbial communities can show astonishing ecological and phylogenetic diversity. What is the role of pervasive horizontal gene transfer (HGT) in shaping this diversity in the presence of clonally expanding “killer strains”? Does HGT of antibiotic production and resistance genes erase phylogenetic s...
