abstract：:What are the forces that shape the structure of prokaryotic genomes: the order of genes, their proximity, and their orientation? Coregulation and coordinated horizontal gene transfer are believed to promote the proximity of functionally related genes and the formation of operons. However, forces that influence the str...
