Assessment of phylo-functional coherence along the bacterial phylogeny and taxonomy
Abstract In this report we use available curated phylogenies, taxonomy, and genome annotations to assess the phylogenetic and gene content similarity associated with each different taxon and taxonomic rank. Subsequently, we employ the same data to assess the frontiers of functional coherence along t...
