Habitat specific abundance of metabolic functions in bacterial effectomes. For FunCat categories of level 2, the AbundEff-values were deduced for specific bacterial subsets. Scores larger than zero indicate categories overrepresented in the effectomes. Underrepresented categories have negative values. The categories are numbered according to the FunCat scheme: "amino acid metabolism" (1.01), "secondary metabolism" (1.20), "extracellular metabolism" (1.25), "glycolysis and gluconeogenesis" (2.01), "glyoxylate cycle" (2.04), "pentose-phosphate pathway" (2.07), "pyruvate dehydrogenase complex" (2.08), "anaplerotic reactions" (2.09), "tricarboxylic-acid pathway (citrate cycle, Krebs cycle, TCA cycle)" (2.10), "electron transport and membrane-associated energy conservation" (2.11), "metabolism of energy reserves (e.g. glycogen, trehalose)" (2.19), "oxidation of fatty acids" (2.25), "photosynthesis" (2.30), "energy conversion and regeneration" (2.45), "DNA processing " (10.01), "RNA synthesis" (11.02), "RNA processing" (11.04), "RNA modification" (11.06), "ribosome biogenesis" (12.01), "translation" (12.04), "translational control" (12.07), "aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases" (12.10), "protein folding and stabilization" (14.01), "protein targeting, sorting and translocation" (14.04), "protein modification" (14.07), "protein/peptide degradation" (14.13), "transmembrane signal transduction" (30.05), "stress response" (32.01), "disease, virulence and defense" (32.05), "cellular sensing and response to external stimulus" (34.11), "prokaryotic cell envelope structures" (42.34), "fungal/microorganismic cell type differentiation" (43.01), "cell wall" (70.01). AbundEff-values were plotted if the number #All(Cat) was at least 100. Abbreviations of subsets: AB all, TH thermophilic, MS mesophilic, PS psychrophilic, AER aerobic, ANE anaerobic, AQU aquatic, TER terrestrial, MHAL moderately halophilic bacteria, and HITR the subset of Bacteria possessing an extreme number of tRNA genes represented by MG_CUB(Bacteria_HITR).
