Dataset for: Marker genes as predictors of shared genomic function

This dataset consists primarily of bioinformatic scripts written in python for processing comparative genomics projects along with a readme file with script usage examples. The dataset also includes excel files with the information on the genome accessions and taxonomy for sequences used for reference, 16S RNA statistics, the ratio of shared genes for bacterial comparison, Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) results, and details of significantly shared and unshared Gene Ontology (GO) terms for bacterial genomes. This dataset supports the publication: Sevigny, J. L., Rothenheber, D., Diaz, K. S., Zhang, Y., Agustsson, K., Bergeron, R. D., & Thomas, W. K. (2019).
