Genomic variations in Mma strains. (a) Distribution of IS elements in the Mma strains: Bar plot showing copy numbers and distribution of the eight types of IS elements in each of the strains along with their phylogenetic relationship. The phylogenetic tree is the same as shown in Fig. 1a. (b) Gene synteny for ESX-1 and the partially duplicated ESX-6 gene clusters. Arrows represent genes and direction of the arrow indicates strand information while vertical connections indicate orthologous genes. Genes are drawn to scale. Color code: blue (ESX-1 related genes) and black (hypothetical protein) arrow mean upstream/downstream of esxB and esxA gene loci. The regular esxB and esxA genes are colored as yellow and light green respectively and the connecting light blue shaded vertical line between the arrows indicates homologous genes. (c) Heat map showing presence and absence of esxA and esxB orthologous and paralogous genes in different Mma strains.
