P2-like phage loci in X. nematophila 19061. Comparison of the tail synthesis region of P2-like phage loci in X. nematophila to the tail synthesis region of bacteriophage P2. Shown are tail-related genes (dark gray boxes), additional phage-related genes (light gray boxes), a predicted transposase (T) gene, and other annotated genes (white boxes). Genes encoding the tail sheath protein (xnpS), tail tube protein (xnpT), and tail fiber protein (xnpH) are identified according to their loci, S1 or S2, T1 or T2, and H1 or H2, respectively. Also shown are smaller genes with sequence similarities to the main tail fiber gene xnpH1 (F; light gray). The diagram is not to scale.
