  1. Comparative genomics and the new perspective on genome evolution Nothing in (computational) biology makes sense except in the light of evolution after Theodosius Dobzhansky (1970)

  4. Lack of gene order conservation - even in “closely related” bacteria of the same Proteobacterial subdivision P. aeruginosa vs E. coli

  5. Genome Alignments - Method Protein sets from completely genomes BLAST cross-comparison Table of Hits Pairwise Genome Alignment Local alignment algorithm Lamarck (gap opening penalty, gap extension penalty); statistics with Monte Carlo simulations Template-Anchored Genome Alignment

  16. Number of gene loss and HGT events in most parsimonious evolutionary scenarios for COGs (I values).

  17. Conclusion Comparative genomics shows that genome evolution is a highly dynamic process dominated by gene shuffling, lineage-specific gene loss and horizontal gene transfer
