Fig. 1: Atlas of Marine Microbial Functional Traits showing patterns of genetic traits across all analysed genomes.

Columns represent genomes grouped into genome functional clusters (GFCs) as shown by the horizontal grey bar. The horizontal colour bar represents the taxonomic affiliation of genomes (mainly phyla, with the exception of Proteobacteria that are represented at the class level). The number next to each taxon in the legend represents the percent from the total genomes analysed. Rows represent the genetic traits grouped into linked trait clusters (LTCs) as shown by the vertical grey bar. LTCs discussed in the text are labelled with the related number alongside the grey bar. The vertical line plot shows the frequency of each genetic trait across all genomes and the vertical colour bar represents the annotation tool used to identify each trait. Both dendrograms are computed using the aggExCluster function (R package apcluster) that generates hierarchal clustering from an affinity propagation result.
