Figure 5

Comparison of the observed and predicted supragenome parameters as additional strains are sequenced. The two panels on the left show observed (upper panel) and predicted (lower panel) numbers of new genes that were or would be found in the second to the n th genome for the number of strains examined (17) or a hypothetical study of 30 strains of Staphylococcus aureus. The two panels on the right show observed (upper panel) and predicted (lower panel) numbers of core and total genes that were or are predicted to be found in second to the n th genome for the number of strains examined (17) or a hypothetical study of 30 strains of Staphylococcus aureus. Observed new, core, and total genes were calculated using genomes examined in ascending order of their counts of non-core genes.
