description

We studied the sets of avoided strings to be observed over a family of genomes. It was found that the length of the minimal avoided string rarely exceeds 9 nucleotides, with neither respect to a phylogeny of a genome under consideration. The lists of the avoided strings observed over the sets of (related) genomes have been analyzed. Very low correlation between the phylogeny, and the set of those strings has been found.
