Supplementary Figure 11: Functional classification of the genes involved in recombination events.
From: Recombination drives genome evolution in outbreak-related Legionella pneumophila isolates
The distribution of the function of the genes involved in the detected recombination events over Cluster of Orthologous Genes (COGs) classification. These genes include virulence factors involved in the type IV secretion system (sidA, sidF, lepA and lepB) and genes involved in invasion and motility (enhA, enhB, enhC and mviN), regulation (letA) and iron acquisition (feoA and feoB). Moreover, with recombination events B and C, ST578B could have incorporated SNPs in genes involved in DNA damage repair and mutagenesis, such as mutH, umuC and umuD. Letters on the x axis correspond to the functional categories described in ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/COG/COG/fun.txt.
