Figure 1

Circos plot representing S. endobioticum genomes of isolates MB42 (❶ blue) and LEV6574 (❶ green). Different shades of green and blue used indicate the GC skew ((G-C)/(G + C)) for the respective scaffolds and contigs. Purple annotations (❷) represent the repeat content given in percentage of 1 kb windows. Number of GO-terms predicted for each gene in the S. endobioticum genomes are shown in ❸. Internal links in grey (❹) represent bidirectional best hits between both isolates of single copy orthologs from the chytrid core genes. Red internal links (❺) represent COG membership of candidate effector genes indicated with ❻. The contigs and scaffolds of each genome are sorted by total repeat content. Key observations are: both genomes are gene dense and genes across the genomes are annotated (❸). No obvious GC-content clustering (❶) is observed, but both genomes contain many repeats (❷). The LEV6574 genome is larger on account of these repetitive sequences. Candidate effector genes (❻) are strongly associated to genomic regions with high repeat content (❸).
