The nucleotide composition of microbial genomes indicates differential patterns of selection on core and accessory genomes

BACKGROUND: The core genome consists of genes shared by the vast majority of a species and is therefore assumed to have been subjected to substantially stronger purifying selection than the more mobile elements of the genome, also known as the accessory genome. Here we examine intragenic base compos...
