Figure 4

Evidence that high G+C contigs are bacterial. Contigs with a BLASTX match to the bacterial order Actinomycetales (at an expectation of 10-8 or less), plotted as a function of G+C content and contig length. Points are color-coded according to the taxonomy of the best GenBank match overall. There is a clean separation between contigs with lower G+C that are more similar, by percent identity and expectation of BLASTX sequence alignments, to arthropod sequences and contigs with higher G+C that are more similar to actinomycete sequences.
