  1. * Functional categories of strain Lai CDSs were based on information from the GenBank database [67].
  2. # Some of the CDSs were not include in any of the categories, while some other CDSs may belong to more than one category. Therefore, the sum of the absent genes for individual category does not equal to the total number of the absent CDSs
