A phylogenomic study quantifies competing mechanisms for pseudogenization in prokaryotes—The Mycobacterium leprae case

BACKGROUND: Pseudogenes are non-functional sequences in the genome with homologous sequences that are functional (i.e. genes). They are abundant in eukaryotes where they have been extensively investigated, while in prokaryotes they are significantly scarcer and less well studied. Here we conduct a c...
