Investigating Potential Chromosomal Rearrangements during Laboratory Culture of Neisseria gonorrhoeae

Comparisons of genome sequence data between different strains and isolates of Neisseria spp., such as Neisseria gonorrhoeae, reveal that over the evolutionary history of these organisms, large scale chromosomal rearrangements have occurred. Factors within the genomes, such as repetitive sequences an...
