The evolutionary landscape of prokaryotic chromosome/plasmid balance
Abstract The balance between chromosomal and plasmid DNAs determines the genomic plasticity of prokaryotes. Natural selections, acting on the level of organisms or plasmids, shape the abundances of plasmid DNAs in prokaryotic genomes. Despite the importance of plasmids in health and engineering, the...
