A New Phylogenomic Approach For Quantifying Horizontal Gene Transfer Trends in Prokaryotes

It is well established nowadays that among prokaryotes, various families of orthologous genes exhibit conflicting evolutionary history. A prime factor for this conflict is horizontal gene transfer (HGT) - the transfer of genetic material not via vertical descent. Thus, the prevalence of HGT is chall...
