Colours indicate the presence of genes in either both (orange) or only one (yellow = Ca. P. baldrii, pink = Ca. P. hodrii) species. For specific genes of pathways see Supplementary Data Files 4, 6 and 7. Abbreviations: EMP pathway, Embden–Meyerhof–Parnas pathway (glycolysis); TCA cycle, tricarboxylic acid cycle; electron transport chain (I, complex I NADH dehydrogenase; II, complex II succinate dehydrogenase; III, complex III cytochrome bc1; IV, cytochrome c oxidase; IV, cytochrome bd oxidase); nitrate reductase respiratory (NarGHI), nitrite reductase (NirK), TAT and SEC dedicated protein secretion, inorganic phosphate transporter family (Pit), inorganic phosphate ABC transporter (PstABCS), phosphate transport system accessory protein (PhoU), two-component system for phosphate regulation (PhoRB), polyphosphate (Poly-P), polyphosphate kinase (PPK), acetate kinase (AckA), phosphotransacetylase (Pta), acetyl-CoA synthetase (Acs), N-acetylglucosamine-6-phosphate deacetylase (NagA), glucosamine-6-phosphate deaminase (NagB), ethanolamine utilisation protein (EutA), ethanolamine ammonia-lyase (EutBC), acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (EutE). Question marks indicate unknown uses or transporters.
