Comparison of total PQSs and var-associated PQSs among Laveranian genomes. Bar plots compare the total number of PQSs in Laveranian genomes, as calculated with two different algorithms (a), and the number of var genes with at least one PQS as a percentage of the total number of var genes (b). PQSs were considered “var-associated” if they were found within a var coding sequence, or if the nearest gene, within 2 kb, was a var gene. Copy numbers of var genes were found in PlasmoDB. Telomeric-PQSs were excluded
