Evolutionary Diversity of Prophage DNA in Klebsiella pneumoniae Chromosomes
Mobile gene elements play an important role in the continuous evolution of the prophage DNA of bacteria, promoting the emergence of new gene structures. This study explored the evolution of four strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae harboring prophages, 19051, 721005, 911021, and 675920, and 16 genomes o...
