Some functional genes, such as essential genes, highly expressed genes and horizontally transferred genes, play important roles in the survival and pathogenicity of bacteria. This review attempts to summarize current computational methods in identifying the above functional genes from bacterial genomes, which is of significant importance in exploring the bacterial genomes.
