Within-species lateral genetic transfer and the evolution of transcriptional regulation in <it>Escherichia coli </it>and <it>Shigella</it>
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Changes in transcriptional regulation underlie many of the phenotypic differences observed within and between species of bacteria. Lateral genetic transfer (LGT) can significantly impact the transcription factor (TF) genes which driv...
