a, The distribution of genes involved in butyrate biosynthesis pathway in the core genomes (pink) and dispensable genomes (cyan). The two pathways for butyrate biosynthesis from acetyl-CoA are shown below. The species with a complete butyrate biosynthesis pathway in the core genome and pan-genome are highlighted in pink and cyan, respectively. Thl, thiolase; Hdb, β-hydroxybutyryl-CoA dehydrogenase; Cro, crotonase; Bcd, butyryl-CoA dehydrogenase (including electron transfer protein α and β subunits); But, butyryl-CoA:acetate CoA transferase; Ptb, phosphate butyryltransferase; Buk, butyrate kinase. b, The distribution of ARGs in in the core genomes (pink) and dispensable genomes (cyan).
