Francisella tularensis Subtype A.II Genomic Plasticity in Comparison with Subtype A.I
Fig 4
Genome alignment of F. tularensis A.I and A.II strains.
Chromosomal alignments of representative F. tularensis A.I strains SCHU S4, NE061598, FSC198, and TI0902 (A); pairwise genome alignment of the F. tularensis A.II strains WY-00W4114 and WY96-3418 (B); and multiple chromosomal alignment of the F. tularensis A.I and A.II strains sequenced to completion and shown in panels A and B (C). The relative location of the Francisella pathogenicity island (FPI) in duplicated region 1 (DR1) and duplicated region 2 (DR2) is identified with a bar above the associated chromosomal region for each subtype. The progressiveMauve software tool was used to align the genomes [21].
