In bacterial genomes, the frequent horizontal gene transfers (HGT) introduce genomic novelties that can promote the diversification of bacterial populations. In opposition, homologous recombination (HR) within populations homogenizes their genotypes, enforcing their cohesion. These processes of genetic exchange, and their patterns of occurrence among and within lineages, must have a great impact on bacterial cladogenesis. Beyond the pattern of exchanges actually occurring between bacteria, the traces of HR and HGT we observe in their genomes reflect what events were fixed throughout their history. This fixation process can be biased regarding the nature of genes or alleles that were introduced. Notably, natural selection can drive the fixat...
