Rapid in silico comparative analysis of multiple bacterial genomes using a PC cluster-based tool mGenomeSubtractor

摘要

@@Bioinformatics- and microarray-facilitated comparative analyses have revealed that some bacterial species possess extremely plastic genomes. Many recently developed in silico comparison tools aim to exploit the expanding flow of high-throughput genome sequencing data to reveal the wider DNA blueprints of individual bacterial species and map out the extent and nature of species-associated mobilomes.
