Figure 2

Linear alignment of pXO2, pAW63 and pBT9727. CDSs are represented by block arrows. Several CDS numbers (see Table 1) are indicated for reference on each plasmid, just above or below their representation. Predicted functions/homologies are indicated by the color key featured below. Well conserved segments of the plasmids are paired by shaded regions (>40% amino acid identity); percentages for specific CDS pairs can be found in Tables 1 and 2. The proposed PAI of pXO2 is raised above the rest of the sequence for clarity. Scale is indicated by the bar in the lower right-hand corner.
