FIG. 2.
Physical map of the genome of V. parahaemolyticus KX-V237. The linkage of NotI fragments and the relative locations of SfiI and I-CeuI fragments are shown. In this study, we constructed the map of NotI restriction fragments. The SfiI or I-CeuI fragments are not linked by, for example, linking clones. This is why the arcs that indicate the SfiI or I-CeuI fragments have gaps. The positions of the SfiI or I-CeuI fragments were determined from the results of hybridization with the NotI-linking clones or probes for the genes indicated. The restriction fragments whose designations have a superscript (e.g., SDb) are the fragments for which multiple fragments having indistinguishable sizes were found (Fig. 1); we could not identify which fragment was which.
