Figure 1

A sample genome displayed by ContigScape. A, the ContigScape interface. The left portion of the screen represents the control panel. The window on the right shows a sample genome. Contigs are colored red (repeat contig), dark blue (unique contig) and orange (probable repeats). B, a zoomed image of some contigs. Some contigs (light blue frame in A) were zoomed to present an enlarged image. B1. A linear plasmid formed by three contigs. B2. Repeats (Contig28) at the end of the chromosome. B3. A circular plasmid with high copy number formed by three contigs (Contig141, 142, and 143). B4. Two high-copy-number circular plasmids each formed by a single contig. B5. A linear plasmid with high copy number was formed by one contig. B6. A circular plasmid with single copy number composed of one contig.
