Phenotypic differentiation of Streptococcus pyogenes populations is induced by recombination-driven gene-specific sweeps

Genomic recombination plays an important role in driving adaptive evolution and population differentiation in bacteria. However, controversy exists as to the effects of recombination on population diversity and differentiation, i.e., recombination is frequent enough to sweep through the population a...
