In .Horizontal Gene Transfer: Genomes in Flux., expert researchers contribute an overview of HGT concepts as well as specific case histories that highlight the most current progress to inspire future work. Divided into three sections, the volume begins with an overview of terminology, concepts and the implications of HGT on current evolutionary thought and philosophy, and continues with methods involving computer and bioinformatics analyses of genomic data as well as molecular biology techniques for identifying, quantifying, and differentiating instances of HGT. A section of case studies follows, which provides detailed accounts of how HGT has shaped evolution across the diversity of organisms and organismal lineages. As a volume of the highly successful .Methods in Molecular Biology™. series, this work provides the kind of detailed description and implementation advice that is crucial for | 出版日期 | Book 2009 | 关键词 | Adaptation; Eukaryota; bioinformatics; cyanobacteria; evolution; gene expression; gene transfer; genes; micr | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-60327-853-9 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-61737-918-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-60327-853-9Series ISSN 1064-3745 Series E-ISSN 1940-6029 | issn_series | 1064-3745 | copyright | Humana Press 2009 |
