Plasticity zone of Y. enterocolitica (YE3450-3644) compared to the P. luminescens genome. YAPIYe, a genomic region highly similar to the adhesion pathogenicity island of Y. pseudotuberculosis and absent in Y. pestis. Sites marked with an asterisk are localized on genome island Plu0958-1166. In Y. enterocolitica biovars 2–5, a second flagellar gene cluster (Flag-2) is inserted next to ye3610 [120]. Genes, operons or proteins shared by Y. enterocolitica and P. luminescens are depicted in dark grey colour above the chromosomal scale, and genes without homologue in P. luminescens are shown in light grey below the line. See section "Evolution of pathogenicity" for further details.
