Assessment of assumptions underlying models of prokaryotic pangenome evolution

BACKGROUND: The genomes of bacteria and archaea evolve by extensive loss and gain of genes which, for any group of related prokaryotic genomes, result in the formation of a pangenome with the universal, asymmetrical U-shaped distribution of gene commonality. However, the evolutionary factors that de...
