Multiple genome alignment for identifying the core structure among moderately related microbial genomes
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Identifying the set of intrinsically conserved genes, or the genomic core, among related genomes is crucial for understanding prokaryotic genomes where horizontal gene transfers are common. Although core genome identification appears...
