Genetic organization of Type III, Type IV and Type VI secretion pathways in the Lysobacter genomes. Arrows represent relative position and transcriptional direction for each gene. Gene/COG calls are indicated above the arrows. Similar coloured boxes between strains represent homologues and numbers within arrows represent GeneIDs. Gene sizes are not drawn to scale. Coloured boxes represent known core type III secretion homologues; closed boxes represent conserved hypothetical proteins; dashed boxes represent non-homologous hypothetical proteins (between strains). a Type III secretion. b Type IV secretion; virB5a and virB5b represent duplicate genes. Arrows below virB6 and virB5b represent duplicate gene pairs located throughout the genomes. The dashed line between virD4 and virB6 indicates that genes are distally located. c Type VI secretion with each cluster represented as a contiguous gene set as indicated by gene identification number. Two gene clusters are identified in L. enzymogenes clusters and one in L. gummosus 3.2.11. Stippled boxes represent type VI secretion genes unique to each cluster
