A bioinformatics tool for analyzing horizontal gene transfer (HGT) networks in microbial communities.
HGT_network is developed by DeepOmics Lab to analyze horizontal gene transfer network in complex microbial datasets . This tool focuses on constructing HGT networks to understand the dynamics of gene flow between different microbial species, which is crucial for understanding microbial evolution and antibiotic resistance spread .
