Comparative analysis of the Kiel alginolyticus mega plasmid. a Plasmid map. ORFs are color-coded according to COG functional categories: Purple: S, yellow: D, pink: EH, pink: K, blue: L, black: NA, magenta: NU, red: O, light-blue: S, green: T, orange: U, sky-blue: V, grey: hypothetical proteins. b Gene presence (dark blue) -absence (light blue) matrix showing the distribution of core and accessory genes for each of the six mega-plasmids. Each row corresponds to one strain, each column represents an orthologous gene family. The red square represents the core genome of the mega-plasmids (296 genes) as opposed to the number of accessory genes of the mega-plasmids (129 genes). Numbers on the right correspond to (#S) number of singletons per plasmid and (#C) number of gene clusters per plasmid
