a
Potential operons and their potential functions are indicated in bold. Descriptions for the ORFs are derived from the best hit in the Interpro database (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/interpro/), given within square brackets, and/or are from the indicated references/source in cases where there are experimental data to support the ORF assignment (given without brackets).
b
All changes (n-fold) are statistically significant (P < 0.05) unless indicated. ND, not determined.
c
No homolog present in the genome sequence of T. kodakaraensis.
