Evolution of an endofungal Lifestyle: Deductions from the Burkholderia rhizoxinica Genome

Background: Burkholderia rhizoxinica is an intracellular symbiont of the phytopathogenic zygomycete Rhizopus microsporus, the causative agent of rice seedling blight. The endosymbiont produces the ...

Genome rearrangement distances and gene order phylogeny in gamma-proteobacteria

Genome rearrangements have been studied in 30 gamma-proteobacterial complete genomes by comparing the order of a reduced set of genes on the chromosome. This set included those genes fulfilling sev...
