Constraints on genome dynamics revealed from gene distribution among the Ralstonia solanacearum species.

Because it is suspected that gene content may partly explain host adaptation and ecology of pathogenic bacteria, it is important to study factors affecting genome composition and its evolution. While recent genomic advances have revealed extremely large pan-genomes for some bacterial species, it rem...
