Fig. 7

Comparison of linear plasmid content of B. burgdorferi isolates. Values outside parentheses are the number of plasmid subtypes in common in the pairwise comparisons (uncertainty in some cells is the result of uncertainty of the subtype of a few linear plasmids due to incomplete terminal sequences - see legend to Fig. 1). Values in parentheses are the number of plasmids of the same PFam32 compatibility type that are different subtypes in the pairwise comparison (assuming plasmids of uncertain subtype are not the same in the strain pair being compared). Thick lines separate isolates with different chromosomal SNP types (see Fig. 6 and text). Cell color indicates relatedness of linear plasmid contents as follows: pink, number of plasmids of same subtype/number of plasmids of different subtype is ≥4; yellow, same as pink only values ≥1 and <4; blue, same a pink only values <1
