Coevolution of aah: A dps-Like Gene with the Host Bacterium Revealed by Comparative Genomic Analysis

Figure 2

Correlation of stop codon usage and the GC content of bacterial genomes. The abundance of the stop codons were plotted against the genomic GC contents. Same kind of calculation based on the 27 predicted genes on the M. arborescens contig was shown as red open boxes. T. whipplei (TW) and L. xyli (LX), two species closely related to M. arborescens, were highlighted by arrows. The bacterial species were listed in Supplementary Table S1 available online at doi: 10.1100/2012/504905.
