Kullback Leibler divergence in complete bacterial and phage genomes

The amino acid content of the proteins encoded by a genome may predict the coding potential of that genome and may reflect lifestyle restrictions of the organism. Here, we calculated the Kullback–Leibler divergence from the mean amino acid content as a metric to compare the amino acid composition fo...
