Estimation of AT and GC content distributions of nucleotide substitution rates in bacterial core genomes

Abstract Background Genomic GC content varies both within and, substantially, between microbial genomes. While some of this variation can be explained by evolutionary divergence and environmental factors, a notable portion is not understood. To investigate further, we explore a non-linear mathematic...
