Horizontal gene transfer in human-associated microorganisms inferred by phylogenetic reconstruction and reconciliation

Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is widespread in the evolution of prokaryotes, especially those associated with the human body. Here, we implemented large-scale gene-species phylogenetic tree reconstructions and reconciliations to identify putative HGT-derived genes in the reference genomes of microb...
