Supra-operonic clusters of functionally related genes (SOCs) are a source of horizontal gene co-transfers
Adaptation of bacteria occurs predominantly via horizontal gene transfer (HGT). While it is widely recognized that horizontal acquisitions frequently encompass multiple genes, it is unclear what the size distribution of successfully transferred DNA segments looks like and what evolutionary forces sh...
