GENOMOSYSTEMATICS OF RICKETTSIAE
The definition of the term genome was given by the German botanist G. Winkler almost one hundred years ago in 1920. A genome definition for bacterial (rickettsia) with a single chromosome was recently presented from the perspective of information ...

New approaches in the systematics of rickettsiae
The development of a formal order analysis (FOA) allowed constructing a classification of 49 genomes of Rickettsiaceae family representatives. Recently FOA has been extended with new tools—‘Map of genes,’ ‘Matrix of similarity’ and ‘Locality-sensitive ...
