Data was obtained from the GenBank database using the following accession numbers: M. haemofelis (CP002808), M. suis (CP002525), M. pneumoniae (U00089), M. gallisepticum (AE015450), M. genitalium (L43967), M. penetrans (BA000026), M. hominis (FP236530), M. hyopneumoniae (AE017243), M. synoviae (AE017245), M. pulmonis (AL445566), M. mycoides (BX293980). Paralogous gene families were assigned using BLASTclust, with 30% sequence identity and 70% covered length thresholds.
