High-throughput comparison of gene fitness among related bacteria
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The contribution of a gene to the fitness of a bacterium can be assayed by whether and to what degree the bacterium tolerates transposon insertions in that gene. We use this fact to compare the fitness of syntenic homologous genes am...
