Figure 3From: Clostridium botulinum group III: a group with dual identity shaped by plasmids, phages and mobile elementsGenetic synteny and replication-directed translocations visualized by MUMmer alignments. (A) A comparison of the chromosomes of C. botulinum group III (BKT015925) and C. novyi-NT. The conserved gene synteny and the low replication-directed translocation activity between the chromosomes are obvious. (B) Four selected pairs of genomes with the same genetic distance to each other as BKT015925 and C. novyi-NT show how much the amount of symmetrical inversions can vary.Back to article page
