Fig. 5

Heat map comparing Fe regulated sRNAs in FA 1090 to the Neisseriaceae family. This heat map is color-coded: Red representing the presence of the sRNA and black indicating the sRNA was absent. Hierarchical clustering analysis of the 14 Fe-regulated sRNA in 345 complete and draft genomes revealed four clusters. Cluster A was a small group of draft commensal genomes with limited homology to Nrf sRNAs. Commensals in cluster 3a showed a similar pattern of sRNA expression as cluster 3b containing the bulk of the meningococcal genomes. Gonococcal genomes were represented in cluster 2 with NrsD, NrsE and NrfG found only in N. gonorrhoeae. A larger version of this figure is provided in Additional file 10: Figure S5 to visualize Neissericeae genome names
