Figure 3

Role of horizontal gene transfer (HGT), gene loss and gene duplication in pathogenic Leptospira evolution.

Scatter plots of duplication genes, HGT genes and most recent common ancestor (MRCA) lost genes versus the total number of genes in nine pathogenic Leptospira species were present. The abscissa represented the gene number of each species and the ordinate represented the gained or lost gene number.
