Background: Genomic islands can be observed in many microbial genomes. These stretches of DNA have a conspicuous composition with regard to sequence or encoded functions. Genomic ...
By comparing genomes among both closely and distally related species, comparative genomics analysis characterizes structures and functions of different genomes in both conserved a...

The availability of entire genome sequences, coupled with genome-wide studies of gene expression, offers promise for discovering new pathways along with their regulatory programs....
Comparing chromosomal gene order in two or more related species is an important approach to studying the forces that guide genome organization and evolution. Linked clusters of si...
