Expert Answer

GC content is found to be variable with different organisms. Both phylogeny and the environment significantly affect nucleotide composition. Prokaryotes will tend to be more GC-rich if they have higher rates of recombination, higher effective population sizes, and/or a process of gene conversion that is more biased toward GC.
