From: Lifespan of restriction-modification systems critically affects avoidance of their recognition sites in host genomes

Fig. 3

Graphs of site avoidance due to R-M system presence for palindromic (blue) and non-palindromic (red) sites. Fraction f of underrepresented sites in a subset of the prokaryotic control dataset (false positive rate) is on the X axis. The difference between percentage of underrepresented sites in the corresponding actual dataset and the false positive rate is on the Y axis. At each point of the graphs, Kr threshold for underrepresentation is fixed at the value giving f(%) of underrepresented sites in a control dataset
