We study the probability distribution of genomic distance d under the hypothesis of random gene order. We translate the random order assumption into a stochastic method for constr...
In comparative genomics, one wishes to deduce the evolutionary distance between dierent species by studying their genomes. Using gene order information, we seek the number of time...
In this work, we performed a comprehensive analysis of the genome organization of eight publicly available cyanobacterial genomes and of the extensively studied Escherichia coli K...
Background: The genomes of prokaryotes and lower eukaryotes display a very strong 11 bp periodic bias in the distribution of their nucleotides. This bias is present throughout a g...
