Evaluation of genomic island predictors using a comparative genomics approach
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Genomic islands (GIs) are clusters of genes in prokaryotic genomes of probable horizontal origin. GIs are disproportionately associated with microbial adaptations of medical or environmental interest. Recently, multiple programs for...
