Using Core Genome Alignments To Assign Bacterial Species

Using Core Genome Alignments To Assign Bacterial Species

ABSTRACT With the exponential increase in the number of bacterial taxa with genome sequence data, a new standardized method to assign species designations is needed that is consistent with classically obtained taxonomic analyses. This is particularly acute for unculturable, obligate intracellular ba...
