Genome science refers to the study of the genome, and organism's complete set of DNA which includes all of its genes. Genome constrasts with genetics, the latter of which refers to the study of one specific gene and their role in inheritance.
Increasing prevalence and severity of multi-drug-resistant (MDR) bacterial infections has necessitated novel antibacterial strategies. Ideally, new approaches would target bacterial pat...
