Phylogeny of bacterial and archaeal genomes using conserved genes: supertrees and supermatrices.

Over 3000 microbial (bacterial and archaeal) genomes have been made publically available to date, providing an unprecedented opportunity to examine evolutionary genomic trends and offering valuable reference data for a variety of other studies such as metagenomics. The utility of these genome sequen...
