The fitness landscape of the African Salmonella Typhimurium ST313 strain D23580 reveals unique properties of the pBT1 plasmid

Fig 8

Putative plasmid-encoded aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase genes are associated with diverse Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria.

The phylogenetic distribution of putative tRNA synthetase genes detected in our plasmid database is displayed in the context of the ribosomal protein tree of life constructed by Hug and colleagues [78]. Large phyla or classes are collapsed into triangles. Taxa represented by our database of 13,661 plasmid sequences are displayed in blue, and the phylogenetic distribution of the 79 putative plasmidā€encoded aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase genes is indicated in red (S9 Table).
