Fig. 2: Intergenomic comparison of the 24 complete crAssBcn phages genomes and their classification into species.

Heatmap generated by VIRIDIC shows the intergenomic similarity values (right half) and alignment indicators (left half). The percent identity between two genomes was determined by BLASTn, integrating intergenomic similarity values with data on genome lengths and aligned genome fractions. In the right half, the more closely related the genomes, the darker the color. The numbers inside the map represent the identity values for each genome pair, rounded to the first decimal. In the left half, the aligned genome length is indicated, with darker colors corresponding to smaller aligned genome fractions. On the right side of the heatmap, the six species (I to VI) in which each virus is classified are indicated in colored squares.
