  Phylogenetic Detection of Conserved Gene Clusters in Microbial Genomes 

  Zheng, Yu; Anton, Brian P.; Roberts, Richard J.; Kasif, Simon (BioMed Central, 2005-10-3)

  BACKGROUND. Microbial genomes contain an abundance of genes with conserved proximity forming clusters on the chromosome. However, the conservation can be a result of many factors such as vertical inheritance, or functional ...
