2SigFinder: the combined use of small-scale and large-scale statistical testing for genomic island detection from a single genome

Abstract Background Genomic islands are associated with microbial adaptations, carrying genomic signatures different from the host. Some methods perform an overall test to identify genomic islands based on their local features. However, regions of different scales will display different genomic feat...
