A considerable fuzzy essential zone of Sinorhizobium pangenome core

Caption

(A) Strain-dependent gene essentiality of genes shared by five strains. The Maximum Likelihood phylogenetic tree based on 3284 core genes of five test strains is shown and all branches have 100% bootstrap support. (B, C) COG enrichment analysis of shared (quasi-)essential genes (341 essential and growth-advantage genes) (B), and core genes showing strain-dependent requirement for growth (C). Red in (B, C), p < 0.05 in Fisher's exact test. The proportion of each COG category and its abundance order among 27,724 genes with COG annotations in the pangenome of five test strains are shown in (B).
