From: Persistence drives gene clustering in bacterial genomes

Figure 4

Two modes symbolizing persistent genes distributions along chromosomes. Under mode A, persistent genes are organized into clusters. Supposing that 15 gene deletions occurred, only 2 lead to the deletion of persistent genes. Under mode B persistent genes are uniformly distributed and 9 out of the same 15 gene deletions involve persistent genes.
