Figure 4

The graph shows a genomic profile of the plant-pathogen Xanthomonas oryzae MAFF 311018 based on the computed differences between the genomic fractions of YR-stretches and a non-overlapping sliding windows of 5 kbp. The peeks having a difference above 0.002 (0.02%) were marked and the corresponding genetic regions were BLASTed against Genbank. The hits retrieved from BLAST indicated that all regions were linked to mobile genetic elements associated with recombination and horizontal transfer.
