Circular representation of the C. tepidum genome.
Circles 1 and 2: predicted protein-coding regions on the plus and minus
strand, color-coded by putative role categories as in ref. 6. Circles
3, (red), 4 (blue), and 5 (green): proteins with top matches to
proteins from Archaea, photosynthetic species, and C.
tepidum, respectively. Other circles: 6, GC skew; 7, percent
G+C; 8, χ2 value for trinucleotide composition in a
2,000-bp window; 9, tRNA genes; and 10, rRNA genes (blue) and sRNA
genes (red).
