The spatial clustering of genes across different genomes has been used to study important problems in comparative genomics, from identification of operons to detection of homologo...
Identifying gene clusters, genomic regions that share local similarities in gene organization, is a prerequisite for many different types of genomic analyses, including operon pred...
Whole genome comparison based on gene order has become a popular approach in comparative genomics. An important task in this field is the detection of gene clusters, i.e. sets of g...
By comparing genomes among both closely and distally related species, comparative genomics analysis characterizes structures and functions of different genomes in both conserved a...
